Job description

Are you looking for a career? A fresh start? A foot in the door of the Maintenance world?

We're searching for a can-do superstar to join our Maintenance Team as a Maintenance Assistant at Vibe Hotel Sydney!

Attitude is everything. If you're practical, eager to learn, and ready to roll up your sleeves, this is the opportunity to begin your career. We're not looking for a finished product — we're looking for the right person. Someone who's curious about how things work, takes pride in doing a good job, and wants to be part of a team.

You'll work alongside our experienced Maintenance team. From painting and patching to basic repairs, general upkeep, and everything in between — you'll be guided, supported and shown the ropes by people who've been doing this for years.

Here’s the part that makes this role different.

This isn't just a job — it's the first step on a genuine career pathway. Through TFE Hotels, you'll have access to structured mentoring, on-the-job training and cross-property experience.

What you'll bring:

• A positive, can-do attitude and a genuine willingness to learn
• Reliability — we can count on you to show up, every shift
• A practical mindset and an interest in how buildings and facilities work
• The ability to follow direction and ask questions when unsure
• Flexibility to work a rotating roster including weekends

What you'll get:

• A structured development program with a dedicated mentor
• Training and qualifications supported by TFE Hotels
• A clear career pathway with real opportunities to grow within the business
• A team that celebrates wins, supports each other, and knows how to have a good time doing it

At TFE Hotels, we're quintessentially Australian in the best possible way — first names, no egos, and a genuine belief that there's nothing we can't achieve when we work together. We encourage a healthy sense of humour, a good dose of enthusiasm, and the confidence to back yourself.

Does this sound like your kind of place? We'd love to hear from you.

Life at TFE is brimming with possibility. We’re the only international hotel group headquartered in Sydney, and we’re looking for passionate people ready to dive in and move with us. Today, we have six brands, with 73 hotels, in five countries… and we’re not stopping there, with 20 new hotels underway and more in the pipeline. Everyone at TFE is invited to take ownership and help shape our future. If you’re authentic, flexible and talented, you’ll find more than you expected, and we’ll support you every step of the way.
