From repairs to renovations: The variety of Maintenance jobs at Accor
Step into any Accor hotel, and you’ll notice the polished floors, the perfect lighting, and the quiet hum of everything working just as it should.
What you won’t always see is the team making that happen, the people behind the walls, above the ceilings, and beneath the surface. The ones who keep it all running.
From last-minute repairs to long-planned refurbishments, our Maintenance team is the steady force that keeps our spaces safe, seamless, and ready to welcome guests from all over the world. And the work they do is as varied as the Heartists® who do it; engineers, technicians, team members, and managers all play their part with skill and pride.
1. Maintenance Technician: The everyday expert
Our Maintenance Technicians know the ins and outs of every corner of their property, quietly ensuring the functionality of fittings, fixtures, and essential systems, and jumping into action the moment something doesn’t work as it should.
From routine painting and plumbing to electrical fixes and safety checks, they’re the hands-on problem solvers who keep things ticking. They’re the ones making sure the hot water runs, the lights stay on, and the pool is crystal clear. And while guests may never see the checklist they’ve worked through before breakfast, they’ll absolutely feel the impact in every comfortable room, every safe space, and every seamless stay.
But it’s not just about the tools. Our technicians are often the first to step in when a guest has a question or needs a hand. They bring reassurance, resourcefulness, and a can-do attitude to every interaction.
2. Maintenance Engineer: The problem-solver with precision
With a toolbelt of technical know-how and a deep understanding of the building’s systems, Maintenance Engineers are the ones who step in with confidence, solving complex issues with skill, speed, and a steady hand.
Whether it’s an HVAC fault, a plumbing issue, or a guest’s TV that's not working, engineers respond quickly and with care, often turning a potential frustration into a moment of reassurance.
They keep essential systems running smoothly, to ensure equipment is safe and compliant, and document every step along the way.
If you take pride in your craft, thrive on challenges, and want to be part of a team that values precision and purpose, this is your kind of role.
3. Maintenance Manager: The heart of the operation
Behind every well-run hotel is a Maintenance Manager who sees the bigger picture and knows exactly how to keep it all running. This is the person who balances technical expertise with strategic thinking, leading their team with clarity, confidence, and care.
From overseeing preventative maintenance plans to managing budgets, stock levels, and supplier relationships, the Maintenance Manager is the connector between the tools, the team, and the long-term vision of the property.
If you’re a natural leader who thrives on variety, enjoys solving challenges before they become problems, and takes pride in creating spaces where people can do their best work, the role of Maintenance Manager is where your skills can shine.
4. Maintenance Team Member: The go-to, all-rounder
If there’s one person who always knows what’s going on, where the tools are, and how to fix that rattling AC, it’s a Maintenance Team Member. Often the first responders to a task, they’re the hands-on, do-it-all heroes who bring energy, reliability, and a can-do attitude to every shift.
From changing light bulbs to troubleshooting plumbing issues, patching up a bit of paintwork or helping a guest with a broken remote, no job is too small, and every fix matters. Their work ensures that the guest rooms feel polished, public areas stay safe, and behind-the-scenes operations run without a hitch.
If you enjoy variety, like staying busy, and take pride in seeing the results of your work, a Maintenance Team Member job is one where your effort is seen, valued, and makes a real difference every day.
Repair, restore, rise: Maintenance job opportunities at Accor
A career in maintenance at Accor isn’t just about keeping things running, it’s about making a real difference every single day.
This could look like replacing a light fixture before a guest arrives, responding calmly in a power outage, or leading a team through a full renovation; your work directly shapes the quality of our spaces.
If you’re ready for a role where your work is seen, your ideas are welcomed, and your effort has a clear impact, there’s a place for you on our Engineering and Maintenance team at Accor.
