Maintenance Engineer

Steeped in history and situated in the heart of Belgravia, The Pembroke stands apart as a unique club for Londoners. From the spirit of our members to the splendour of our events, we are a home for eclectic and excellent living. A place to eat, drink, dance and meet, The Pembroke opens its doors to those who wish to fill their world with the finest experiences, from cocktails to culture, billiards to business.

As we build out our operational team, we are looking for a skilled and solutions-focused Maintenance Engineer to help ensure the fabric and facilities of the club are always at their best. The Maintenance Engineer is responsible for the reactive and preventative maintenance of The Pembroke’s building, plant, and equipment. Working with minimal supervision, you will ensure that all areas of the club are safe, fully operational, and presented to the exacting standard our members expect. You are a problem solver who takes ownership of issues from identification through to resolution, and who understands that speed, discretion, and quality of finish matter equally in a luxury environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Carry out reactive repairs and planned preventative maintenance across the club, covering electrical, mechanical, plumbing, carpentry, decorating, and general building works, in accordance with all legislative requirements.
• Plan and prioritise maintenance tasks, logging all work accurately and escalating areas requiring urgent attention or specialist intervention to the Engineering Manager.
• Liaise with Events, F&B, and other departments to schedule and coordinate maintenance activity so it does not disrupt daily operations or high-profile functions.
• Manage and maintain tools, equipment, and materials inventory; support the Engineering Manager in procuring parts and supplies to ensure optimum stock levels and minimise downtime.
• Support the Engineering Manager in identifying and delivering refurbishment and improvement works, ensuring all outcomes meet the club’s premium finish standards.

Compliance, H&S & Contractors

• Ensure all maintenance work complies with relevant safety regulations and best practices, with particular attention to HVAC, fire alarm, and gas systems; conduct regular inspections to identify and address issues proactively.
• Adhere to all H&S legislation, risk assessments, and company policies; ensure member, guest, and staff safety is protected at all times, including management of potential hazards across all areas of the building.
• Support the Engineering Manager in coordinating external contractors, ensuring work is completed on time and to the club’s standards, with all activity accurately logged on the CAFM system; refer specialist jobs to approved external providers as appropriate.
• Maintain a working knowledge of the club’s premises licence obligations and conduct compliance audits and checks as directed, escalating any potential risks promptly.

Requirements

• A recognised trade qualification in Electrical, Gas, Mechanical Engineering, Plumbing, Decorating, or Carpentry is desirable.
• A minimum of 2 years proven experience in a building maintenance role, ideally within luxury hospitality or a similarly high-standard commercial environment.
• Hands‑on experience with electrical systems, including installations, servicing, and troubleshooting in a live hospitality or commercial environment; knowledge of HVAC, extraction, gas, and fire alarm systems is highly desirable.
• Strong working knowledge of H&S legislation, compliance requirements, and risk assessment processes.
• A self‑starter with a sharp eye for detail, excellent communication skills, and the ability to work flexibly across evenings, weekends, and events as the business requires.
