Our Hotel is looking for a casual Handy person to join our engaged and friendly team. We go above and beyond to keep our guests' experiences on track.

- Ensuring the asset is maintained to a high standard and facilities are always guest-ready
- Keeping your supervisor or duty manager in the loop with supply levels
- Being ready to step up and take on extra duties when the team needs you
What we need from you:
- You'll have at least one year of maintenance or repair work under your belt
- Good all round knowledge of maintenance procedures, preferably within the hospitality industry, hotels/resorts or similar environments (hospitals, schools, age care facility, shopping centres, etc) is highly advantageous

- Ability to communicate with people across all departments
- Ability to maintain high and consistent standards
