Job Description

Marriott International is a globally renowned hospitality company known for its commitment to quality and exceptional guest experiences. Among its portfolio of luxury brands, JW Marriott stands out as a premium choice worldwide, featuring over 100 beautiful hotels located in prime city centers and exclusive resort locations. Marriott International prides itself on its diverse workforce and inclusive culture, consistently fostering growth and well-being among employees. JW Marriott exemplifies this ethos by providing a workplace that supports professional development, recognition, and personal fulfillment, while emphasizing holistic wellness in a luxurious environment. The company believes that when employees thrive, the guests receive unparalleled service, living the promise of "A wonderful hotel experience, always." This commitment is reflected in the brand's legacy, rooted in the vision of its founder, J. Willard Marriott, and carried on by a team of confident, innovative, and genuine associates.

This role is based in Tampa, Florida, at the 505 Water St location, and presents a full-time, non-management opportunity in the engineering and facilities category. The role focuses on the preventative maintenance and upkeep of guest rooms, meeting spaces, and public areas, ensuring all aspects of the environment contribute to a superior guest experience. Duties involve comprehensive care and maintenance including mattress flipping and inspection, bed frame assembly, thorough vacuuming behind and beneath furniture, carpet and upholstery stain removal, detailed dusting, paint touch-ups, furniture refinishing, appliance inspections, lighting replacements, and grout and caulking evaluations.

The maintenance professional will perform minor repairs such as adjusting loose toilet seats, replacing light bulbs, patching wall holes, and deep cleaning of bathrooms, walls, windows, mirrors, and floors in guest rooms. Reporting serious maintenance or safety issues promptly to management is a key responsibility, alongside adherence to company safety protocols through required training and certifications. Employees are expected to maintain a professional appearance and demeanor, keep proprietary company information confidential, and ensure the protection of company assets.

The role demands physical activity, including standing, sitting, bending, twisting, lifting, and moving objects up to 50 pounds independently, and assisting with heavier items when necessary. The successful candidate will work collaboratively with colleagues to meet common goals and uphold the company’s quality expectations. Marriott offers an environment that welcomes diversity and inclusivity, prohibits discrimination, and actively promotes an accessible and supportive workplace for all.
