About The Position

The Pool Projects Maintenance Specialist supports maintenance projects, improvements, and preventive upkeep across pools, food & beverage outlets, and bathhouse areas, with a strong focus on independent execution, organization and planning, and proactive problem-solving. This role helps keep assigned venues safe, reliable, attractive, and guest-ready by planning and completing projects with minimal supervision, coordinating access with Operations, and ensuring thorough documentation and follow-through.

Requirements

High school diploma or equivalent preferred; trade/technical training is a plus.
1–3+ years in facilities/maintenance, project work, construction support, or similar hands-on role (hospitality/resort environment preferred).
Strong mechanical aptitude and comfort using hand/power tools safely.
Ability to plan and execute small-to-mid scope projects independently.
Strong time management, prioritization, and attention to detail.
Comfortable using digital systems for work orders and documentation.
Ability to work in humid/wet environments and outdoors in varied weather; lift/carry, climb, kneel, and stand for extended periods.
Flexible schedule based on venue operations, including weekends/holidays when needed.

Responsibilities

Independently complete assigned projects from start to finish: scope, materials, scheduling, execution, cleanup, and closeout.
Build simple project plans: steps, required shutdowns/closures, safety controls, tools/materials, and completion timing.
Coordinate project timing with Pools Manager and operations to minimize guest impact and maintain service continuity.
Perform light construction and finish work (as assigned): hardware replacements, patch/repair, caulking/sealing, masonry, minor carpentry, mounting/fastening, touch-up work, and fixture swaps.
Maintain clean, organized workspaces; restore all areas to a guest-ready standard after every task.
Manage work orders and project tracking provided by the Pools Manager with status updates, parts used, photos, and completion notes.
Track inventory and project supplies for assigned venues; proactively identify long-lead items and reorder needs.
Maintain organized storage and tool readiness (labels, shelving, standard locations, clean/secure setup).
Conduct routine walk-throughs of pools, F&B outlets, and bathhouse spaces to identify issues early (trip hazards, loose railings, damaged surfaces, leaks, worn hardware, drainage issues, door/lock issues, signage needs, safety equipment readiness).
Address minor issues promptly and recommend longer-term fixes to prevent repeat problems.
Support preventive maintenance tasks related to property assets and equipment as directed and within training (e.g., pumps/filters/valves/controls support, plumbing fixtures, basic mechanical troubleshooting).
Follow all safety procedures (PPE, tool safety, chemical awareness, lockout/tagout where applicable) and maintain a safety-first work approach.
Support health and safety compliance standards by keeping spaces maintained and reporting concerns immediately.
Communicate professionally with team members and guests; escalate urgent issues or safety risks without delay.
