Property Services Technician; Houseperson​/Light Maintenance

Benefits

• Employee discounts

The Property Services Technician keeps The Buxton Hotel looking and working the way our guests expect — clean, cared for, and quietly running without a hitch. This is a blended role: part houseperson, part porter, part light maintenance. One day may be public space cleaning and linen runs; the next may be clearing a slow drain, swapping a PTAC filter, and mowing the front lawn before check-in.

We are looking for someone who takes personal ownership of the building and grounds, notices what others walk past, and fixes it before a guest ever has to mention it. This is a hands-on role with real autonomy and real visibility. It suits a self-starter who is handy, dependable, and genuinely enjoys taking care of a place and the people in it.
