Are you an experienced maintenance professional who takes pride in high standards, compliance and creating a safe, well-maintained environment?

We are seeking an experienced Property Manager to oversee the maintenance and physical operation of Aloft by Marriott Birmingham Eastside and The Eastside Rooms. This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in maintaining our hotel and conference venue to the highest quality, cost and brand standards, while ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience for our guests.

About the Role

As Property Manager, you will be responsible for the effective day-to-day management of the property's maintenance and physical operations across Aloft Hotel and The Eastside Rooms. You will report to the Director of Operations and work closely with managers and colleagues across all departments to ensure the property operates safely, efficiently and to the required company and brand standards.
