Atlas Hotels is hiring a Maintenance Effectiveness Manager!

At Atlas Hotels, we’re not just running hotels—we’re redefining exceptional hospitality. As one of the UK’s leading hotel groups—and proudly recognised as one of The Sunday Times Best Places to Work—we’re all about creating great guest experiences, a fantastic place to work, and strong returns for our investors.

We’re on the lookout for a Maintenance Effectiveness Manager to join our Property team. If you’re passionate about leading people, delivering exceptional guest experiences and driving commercial success through maintenance teams and across multiple hotels, this could be your next big move—and we’d love to hear from you!

In return, you’ll enjoy fantastic benefits, including:

• Hotel stays across our 59 hotels (Holiday Inn Express, Hampton by Hilton, and Holiday Inn) for just £25 per night, plus 50% off food and drink
• Worldwide discounts at 6,600+ IHG Hotels globally
• Atlas Friends & Family Discount – up to 45% off for your loved ones
• Monthly cash rewards through our recognition platform
• HSF Health Plan – covering dental, optical, and health costs for you and your family
• Access to Perkbox – exclusive deals and discounts from major brands
• Online GP access, 24/7 counselling, and wellness support
• Scottish Widows Pension 5% EE and 4% ER
• £250 employee referral bonus
• Quarterly and annual awards programmes
• Option to buy additional holiday days

What you’ll be doing:

• Leading the Way

You'll lead and develop a high-performing team including Maintenance Support Managers, Regional Painters, and the Property Technical Support Manager, to drive effectiveness in how Maintenance Technicians work, learn, develop, and deliver. From training and engagement, to system support and cover coordination, you'll make sure Maintenance Technicians have the tools, guidance, and backing they need to keep hotels compliant, operational and well-presented.

• Turning Strategy into Action

You'll bring our maintenance strategy to life - embedding efficient processes, ensuring hotels receive the right technical support at the right time, and championing initiatives that improve maintenance performance and presentation standards across our hotels.

• Guest Obsessed

You'll make sure our hotels stay operational, safe, and well-presented - minimising out of order rooms and enhancing the guest experience through effective maintenance and compliance delivery.

• Commercial Focus with Heart

From reviewing supplier performance to driving maintenance cost efficiency, you'll balance quality service with strong commercial thinking - ensuring we get great value from our people, processes, and suppliers.

• People First, Always

You'll grow and develop your team with structured performance conversations, hand-on coaching, and consistent feedback. You'll also lead quarterly Maintenance Technician meetings and develop training programmes that raise skills and capability.

• Driving Compliance & Standards
  

You'll ensure that hotel maintenance meets Atlas, brand, legal, and operational standards - tracking performance, supporting compliance activity, and working closely with hotel leaders to keep standards high and risks low.

We think you'll thrive if you have:

• Proven experience leading a multi-site operational or maintenance support team, preferably within a hotel environment
• A track record of improving operational processes, systems, and team performance
• Experience managing maintenance suppliers, training delivery, and compliance activities
• Familiarity with maintenance systems (ideally Logit), and hotel/property compliance
• Strong leadership, coaching and communication skills
• Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail
• Confidence in using data to drive decision-making and performance improvement
• The ability to influence stakeholders at all levels and collaborate cross-functionally
• A field-based mindset with willingness to travel regularly, including a weekly visit to Leicester
• Eligibility to work in the UK
