Company tools and van: We provide you with a corporate vehicle equipped for your routes, a fuel card, specific measurement equipment for your specialty, professional tools, and high-quality approved PPE.

Digital daily report without paperwork: You will record your preventive and corrective maintenance quickly and easily through our CMMS program.

The role

Refrigeration Specialist – Specialized Technical Maintenance Division

At Mac Hotels, we are launching our new Specialized Technical Maintenance Division. The objective is very clear: to directly manage the chain's most critical installations (HVAC, Electricity, and Fluids) with our own team.

Here, we work with a structured preventive maintenance plan. We want to improve day-to-day operations and focus on performing high-quality technical work. We are looking to bring on a Refrigeration Specialist who provides technical rigor, has the capacity to work autonomously, and is specialized in the maintenance and repair of refrigeration installations and HVAC equipment.

What will your role be?

You will be responsible for the technical maintenance of the refrigeration installations and HVAC equipment in our hotels, among other duties:

Execute preventive maintenance plans for refrigeration installations and HVAC equipment.
Diagnose and repair faults in cold rooms, commercial and industrial refrigeration equipment, chillers, and air conditioning systems.
Inspect refrigeration circuits, compressors, condensers, evaporators, and other installation components.
Detect potential leaks, check pressures and temperatures, and verify the correct operation of the equipment.
Perform corrective interventions, fine-tuning, and technical improvements to the installations.
Record the actions performed and the status of the equipment in the CMMS system.

What are we looking for in you?

To ensure a good fit with the division's quality standards, the candidate must meet the following requirements:

Experience: Demonstrable professional career of between 3 and 5 years working as a first-class skilled tradesperson or refrigeration specialist.
Technical knowledge: Experience in the maintenance and repair of refrigeration installations, industrial/commercial refrigeration equipment, and HVAC systems.
Mobility: Valid Type B driver's license, necessary for managing itinerant routes with the company vehicle.
Methodological approach: Ability to diagnose faults by always seeking the root cause of the problem, neatness when recording data in the CMMS, and strict commitment to occupational risk prevention (ORP) regulations.
Specific training: Accreditation for the handling of fluorinated gases and training related to thermal installations (RITE) will be valued.
