Part-time Hotel Handyman

Maintenance Assistant-The Mitre by Hampton Court
Keeping things running like clockwork, with a little Mitre magic.

A leaky tap? A temperamental boiler? A bedroom door that has decided it no longer wants to close? You're our kind of person.
We're looking for a hands-on, resourceful and all-round fabulous Part-time Maintenance Assistant to join the team at The Mitre, Hampton Court, for approximately 3 days per week over 24 hours (although we are flexible and open to discussions for the right candidate). Days and hours of work to be discussed and agreed. 

Sitting pretty on the banks of the Thames, right next door to Hampton Court Palace, The Mitre is anything but your average hotel. Our 40-bedroom riverside hideaway is home to glamorous restaurants, cocktail bars, enchanting river terraces, a beautiful orangery, an all-day café and even a rather curious library.
Easily commutable by train or car-this as a great place to work and become part of the Signet family.We offer a generous Tronc of about £2,500 per year, paid monthly with your normal pay, (if you work full time, pro rata amount for part-time) from your first day at work!

It's a wonderfully eclectic place, full of character, charm and plenty going on. And behind all that magic? A lot of things that need to work exactly as they should. That's where you come in.

The role

You'll be the sort of person who sees a problem and wants to fix it, rather than walk past it. Working alongside our Maintenance Manager, you'll help keep everything in tip-top condition, from guest bedrooms and restaurants to kitchens, bars and the spaces in between. No two days will be quite the same. One minute you might be investigating a mysterious leak, the next responding to an urgent maintenance request or helping bring a new project to life. You'll be trusted to get stuck in, think on your feet and take real pride in the little details that make a big difference to our guests and our team.

A little more about what you'll be getting up to:

• Supporting the Maintenance Manager with day-to-day maintenance tasks, making sure everything is completed safely, efficiently and to a brilliant standard.
• Rolling up your sleeves and troubleshooting all sorts of minor technical and maintenance issues, inside and out.
• Responding to maintenance requests and emergencies with a cool head and a can-do attitude. Power cut? Unexpected leak? No problem!
• Working independently when needed, but always being a great team player.
• Helping coordinate contractors and external suppliers, making sure work is completed properly and with minimal disruption.
• Getting involved in renovations, improvement works and exciting projects around the hotel.
• Carrying out regular checks and tests on equipment and machinery to make sure everything is safe and working as it should.
• Keeping health, safety and hygiene standards firmly on the agenda.
• Being friendly, approachable and discreet around our guests, understanding that a little consideration goes a long way.

Who are we looking for?

• We're not necessarily looking for someone who can fix absolutely everything (although that would be rather handy!).
• We're looking for someone practical, proactive and naturally good at figuring things out. Someone who takes pride in their work, spots the little things others might miss and isn't afraid to get their hands dirty.
• You'll ideally have some previous maintenance or facilities experience, a good understanding of basic repairs and maintenance, and the confidence to know when something needs a little extra expertise.
• Most importantly, you'll have a positive attitude, a great eye for detail and a genuine appreciation for what makes a guest's experience special.

What's in it for you?

• A good hourly rate of pay, plus generous tronc to top up your monthly earnings.  
• Discounted rates across our restaurants and hotels for you, family and friends to enjoy. 
• Stream - access up to 40% of your pay before pay date, and save directly from your salary.
• Your Wellbeing Hub - powered by Hospitality Action, from an 24/7 employee assistance programme, to gym classes, to nutritious recipes, to clinical counselling, we want to you feel cared for at each step.
• Access personalised training, clear career paths and genuine opportunities for your development.- all visible through our brilliant team comms and learning platform, All Gravy
• 28 days’ holiday  (including Bank Holidays)  + your birthday off 
• Team recognition programme to celebrate your achievements. 
• Referral bonus scheme for recommending top talent - earn up to £1000.
• Flexible scheduling- no split shifts!
• Complimentary team meals on shift.
• Long Service Awards - dinners for two with all the trimmings, complimentary room stays with breakfast and dinner, theatre tickets to the West End, and so much more.
• Industry supplier trips and visits, as well as access to masterclasses and workshops.
• Flexibility to move across the Signet group, as you develop with us. 
• Access to apprenticeships and accredited qualifications up to Level 3. 

A little about us

At The Signet Collection, we're not your typical hotel group. We like to do things a little differently. Our hotels each have their own personality, their own stories and their own special kind of magic. We believe luxury is about the details, the people and the experiences we create. That includes how we look after our guests, how we look after each other and the pride we take in what we do. We like our teams to reflect that same spirit: warm, welcoming, polished and full of personality.

If you're the sort of person who enjoys making things work, takes pride in a job well done and fancies being part of something a little out of the ordinary, we'd love to hear from you.

Come and help us keep The Mitre looking magnificent.
