Work environment

Restored hacienda hotel outside Mérida — one of Yucatán's most distinctive hospitality settings. The property is part of the guest experience; maintenance is directly visible in the quality of everything guests encounter.

About the role

Hacienda hotel maintenance is architecture stewardship. The building was built to last 200 years and has — the maintenance supervisor's job is to ensure it lasts another 200. That combination of preserving the past and enabling a luxury present is what makes this role unlike any other in hotel maintenance.
