Role Context
The Senior HVAC Technician plays an important role in keeping hotel climate-control and refrigeration

Working across guest areas, back-of-house facilities, plant rooms, and refrigeration installations, the technician helps prevent equipment failures, maintain required temperature standards, control energy consumption, and ensure engineering systems support a comfortable hotel experience.
Key Responsibilities
* Maintain, repair, inspect, and adjust hotel air conditioning and refrigeration equipment.
* Service chillers, air handling units, fan coil units, split air conditioning systems, window air conditioning units, cold rooms, coolers, ice machines, extract fans, and related HVAC equipment.
* Diagnose mechanical and operational faults and complete corrective repairs with minimal disruption to hotel operations.
* Carry out scheduled preventive maintenance according to engineering requirements and established operating procedures.
* Assist external chiller contractors during planned maintenance and provide accurate information regarding equipment condition and performance.
* Record daily chiller readings, cold room temperatures, and other required operating parameters.
* Verify that temperature settings and system operating conditions remain within approved limits.
* Monitor spare-parts availability for air conditioning and refrigeration equipment and identify replacement requirements before shortages affect maintenance activity.
* Inspect purchased HVAC and refrigeration materials to confirm suitability and quality before installation.
* Recommend practical improvements that can increase equipment efficiency, reliability, and operating economy.
* Support energy conservation initiatives designed to reduce electricity consumption and engineering operating costs.
* Respond to HVAC faults affecting guestrooms, public areas, operational spaces, and hotel facilities.
* Maintain plant rooms, workshops, tools, and associated engineering areas in a clean and orderly condition.
* Follow relevant hotel engineering procedures, safety requirements, and operational standards.
* Work assigned shifts, weekends, and on-call schedules when operational coverage requires additional support.
Ideal Profile
The position suits an HVAC technician with at least 2 years of experience in a similar role and practical exposure to commercial air conditioning and refrigeration systems. Previous hospitality or hotel engineering experience is preferred because the work requires responsive maintenance while protecting guest comfort and maintaining continuous facility operations.
Candidates should be familiar with technical documentation, operating procedures, preventive maintenance routines, and standards relevant to HVAC responsibilities. The ability to work independently, identify equipment abnormalities quickly, coordinate with contractors, and maintain accurate operating records is important.
Flexibility to work shifts, weekends, and on-call assignments is required. Additional language capability would be an advantage in Dubai\'s international hospitality environment.
