Location: London – site-based across our estate, 5 days a week, mon – fri
Reporting Line: Head of Facilities
We’re looking for a hands-on Maintenance Manager to join the team. We currently operate 7 restaurants, with new openings planned in the future.
The role has two core parts:
1) carrying out hands-on maintenance across our sites yourself, to a consistently high standard
2) supporting our General Managers by outsourcing the more complex or specialist jobs to external contractors, then overseeing and signing off their work.
This is a fully site-based role across our estate and office, with no set remote working days.
Role requirements:
- A recognised trade background with strong all-round practical skills

- Coming prepared with the right tools for each job, and purchasing materials where needed within budget
- Working with GM’s to manage and prioritise site to-do lists
- Provide advice to sites in emergency situations and when to make urgent callouts to specialist preferred contractors

- Overseeing contractor works on site, ensuring quality and safety, and signing off completed jobs
- Recording everything and managing the full admin side – logging, tracking, approvals and records – through Access Maintain
- Planning, prioritising and working independently across multiple sites
Ideal candidate:
- Previous multi-site maintenance experience, ideally within hospitality, retail or leisure
- Equally comfortable executing day-to-day maintenance to a high standard yourself and juggling third-party contractors on the more complex jobs
- Obsessive about detail and the quality of the finish
- Naturally organised – plans ahead, sets priorities and keeps multiple sites moving
