• Handle all standard maintenance: plumbing, electrical, furniture, fixtures
• Maintain the property's central courtyard: fountain systems, garden lighting, drainage

• Maintenance experience in colonial or heritage buildings preferred
• Physical fitness for work in Mérida's heat
• Immediate AC troubleshooting competency

Benefits

• IMSS, aguinaldo, paid vacation + premium

Work environment

Colonial boutique hotel in Mérida's historic center. High HVAC demand environment — air conditioning is not a luxury here, it's essential infrastructure.

About the role

In Mérida in July, a broken AC at 2 p.m. is an emergency. The maintenance technician who can diagnose a mini-split fault, find the issue within 15 minutes, and restore cooling before the guest suffers in 40-degree heat — that skill saves not just comfort but the hotel's reputation. HVAC competency in Mérida is not optional.
