Hotel Plumber — Colonial Boutique Properties

Responsibilities

• Maintain all plumbing in a colonial boutique property: guest bathrooms, kitchen, courtyard fountain, rooftop bar water connections
• Manage cistern or tinaco water storage — many Oaxacan boutique hotels supplement municipal supply with rooftop storage; float valves, pump maintenance, and tank cleaning on schedule
• Service the property's central courtyard fountain — a core aesthetic element of the colonial hotel experience
• Handle rainy-season drainage preparedness — Oaxaca's May–October rainy season brings heavy afternoon rain that loads terrace and roof drains
• Repair and maintain aged plumbing in colonial building — mixture of modern PVC and older galvanized or cast iron in historic properties
• Coordinate with artisan restoration contractors when plumbing work intersects with heritage structural elements

Requirements

• Plumbing experience; boutique or old-building environment experience useful
• Reliable and organized — small property environment with limited team
• Comfort working in heritage-protected building with careful approach to structure
• Rainy-season drainage awareness

Benefits

• IMSS, aguinaldo, paid vacation + premium
• Staff canteen
• Uniform provided

Work environment

Colonial boutique hotel in Oaxaca's historic center. Small-team plumbing environment in a UNESCO World Heritage city where buildings matter as much as the services within them.

About the role

In Oaxaca's boutique hotels, the plumber who keeps the courtyard fountain running and the kitchen drain clear is enabling the entire guest experience. The building is what the guests came to stay in — the plumbing's job is to be completely invisible, so that the beauty of the colonial architecture is all anyone notices.
