Job Title: Hotel Maintenance Engineer

Department: Engineering / Maintenance

Reports To: Maintenance Manager

Location: House of Gods Hotel, 12 Bank Street, Canary Wharf, London, E14 4DD

The Role

At House of Gods, perfection is non negotiable. Our spaces are theatrical, indulgent, and meticulously maintained and that’s where you come in.

As a Hotel Maintenance Engineer, you’ll be the unseen hero behind the velvet curtain, keeping our hotel running flawlessly day and night. From guest rooms dripping in decadence to back‑of‑house systems that must never miss a beat, you’ll ensure everything works exactly as it should beautifully, safely, and without fuss.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Keeping the building, bedrooms, and back‑of‑house areas operating at House of Gods standards immaculate, seamless, and guest‑ready at all times.
• Carrying out preventive maintenance across electrical, HVAC, plumbing, mechanical, and life‑safety systems.
• Responding swiftly and discreetly to maintenance issues reported by guests or colleagues because magic should never feel interrupted.
• Diagnosing faults, fixing what you can, and escalating when needed with clear communication to the Maintenance Manager.
• Working closely with Housekeeping and Front Office to ensure guests never notice the work only the perfection.
• Supporting energy efficiency and sustainability initiatives without compromising luxury.
• Keeping accurate records of works completed, inspections, and equipment servicing.
• Playing a key role in refurbishments, upgrades, and improvement projects as we continue to evolve our spaces.
• Following all health, safety, and security procedures, using PPE and safe systems of work at all times.

What We’re Looking For

• 2–4 years’ experience in general maintenance, ideally within a hotel, hospitality, or high‑end commercial environment.
• Strong, hands‑on knowledge of electrical, HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical systems.
• A natural problem‑solver who thrives under pressure and takes pride in getting things right first time.
• Comfortable reading technical manuals, drawings, and schematics.
• Physically fit and confident working with tools, ladders, and access equipment.
• Calm, professional, and discreet — especially when working around guests.
• Flexible with shifts, including evenings, weekends, and holidays hospitality never sleeps.

Bonus Points If You Have

• A trade qualification or certification in HVAC, electrical, plumbing, or similar.
• Previous experience in luxury or lifestyle hotels.
• Basic computer skills for maintenance systems, reporting, and email.

The Environment

This is a hands‑on role in a live hotel environment. Expect to be on your feet, moving between glamorous guest spaces and practical plant rooms, indoors and outdoors, in all seasons.

Why House of Gods?

Because we don’t do ordinary. We do opulence, personality, and unforgettable experiences and we need people who care as much about the details behind the scenes as we do about the drama out front.

We Offer

• A space built on energy, excess, and absolute style.
• Real progression for real people.
• Full training and development to sharpen your craft.
• 20% accommodation discount.
• Wagestream – a financial toolkit that lets you access earned pay when you need it.
• Tronc scheme, paid monthly on Top of Salery.
• Staff recognition programme.
• Yearly staff ball.
• The chance to be part of something truly iconic in London’s newest House of Gods.

If you like things done properly, take pride in your craft, and want to be part of something unapologetically different, we’d love to hear from you.
