Join to apply for the Facilities Engineer Lead role at Virgin Hotels

We love what we do and what we do is important! We believe that everyone should leave feeling better – this means not just our guests and owners, but also our teammates. Everyone should go home feeling better because they learned something new, or had fun working that day. Therefore, we hire unique individuals who work together to create amazing experiences for our guests. We recognize that every member of the team contributes to the success of the whole organization. No-one is more important than anyone else, and unless we are in it together, we can't create that special experience for our guest.

Should you choose to accept it…

We want someone who thinks outside the box and is ready to help make the people function a success. Managing paperwork and having strong organizational skills are a requirement of the job, but they are no longer the entire job. Our Belief Statement starts with “We love what we do and what we do is important.” Every single teammate in our hotel is valued and it is the People Departments responsibility to help encourage that! If you are passionate about people, share our quirky sense of humor, and are able to see beyond the traditional scope of human resources, then this just might be the right role for you.

Most of all, we want you to have FUN since you play a huge role in creating that memorable guest experience!
