Director of Engineering
IHG Hotels & Resorts
Why We're Here We believe heartfelt, human connections make people's lives better. Especially the people who work here. Our founder, Bill Kimpton rebelled against impersonal, generic hospitality that makes people feel disconnected. He initiated a new boutique hotel standard and environment where people could connect, from the heart. That was the goal then, and it is still our purpose today. Your work here has meaning. You're here to improve the lives of coworkers, guests, owners, communities, and together we make that happen. It's what drives all that we do. Every day you can improve lives in your own, unique way and you can expect the same in return. It all starts with you. How We're Different Our San Francisco-born entrepreneurial spirit and zest for life kick started this culture in 1981, and it shines through to this day. It all flows from you. The lively, rebellious, genuine you - with your diverse background, talents, experiences, and plucky personality - is fully welcome, and celebrated here. Because we know that when people can be themselves at work, they shine. That's what we seek out and celebrate. It's people of all kinds who share a knack for creativity and self-leadership. People who don't need to be told what to do to get things done. People who have an innate passion for making others' lives better. It adds up to a work environment that's a bit quirky, irreverent, exciting, uncommon, empowering, and downright exceptional. Guests feel it; you'll feel it too. What You'll Do In this role you'll work with the Regional Director of Engineering and the property General Manager to supervise the Engineering Department. Responsibilities include maintaining all equipment, systems, and building components. In addition, you'll be responsible for management and decision-making authority for daily operations and leading property engineering teams. Some of your responsibilities include:
- Operate, repair, and maintain all pumps, boilers, motors, chillers, electrical systems, refrigeration systems, lighting, hotel appliances, and the hotel physical plant.
- Paint all surfaces and equipment, make minor wall covering repairs, and minor furniture touch-ups.
- Perform minor construction work, repair and maintain the lock and key systems, and replace lightbulbs, fixtures, televisions, and radios.
- Lead staff (for those properties that have staff) by conducting performance evaluations, holding monthly departmental meetings, leading training on both technical and safety systems, building and maintaining your team.
- Maintain open and positive relationship with the People & Culture Department.
- Maintain par stocks of essential parts and associated materials and products used for operating, repairing, and maintaining the hotel. Notify your supervisor when parts are needed by using the proper requisition system or want list as appropriate, including purchasing.
- Maintain accurate logs of equipment tests, such as fire alarm systems, emergency lighting, fire extinguishers, etc. Repair and preventative maintenance logs, monthly reports, daily walk reports, meter readings, etc.
- Responsible for ensuring that contacts with project contractors and salesmen are conducted in a professional manner and in accordance with Kimpton Group standards.
- A high school diploma and trade school experience preferred.
