• Conducting the necessary preventative measures to decrease overall issues
• Creating and updating a list of skilled and trusted professionals (fundis) and engaging them appropriately
• Negotiating rates, briefing on tasks, and monitoring all works by external professionals
• Daily management and administration of our property issues list on Asana
• Attending weekly property management meetings to discuss current tasks/challenges
• General operations tasks such as organizing staff uniforms and ordering equipment for other teams

• 5+years in property management for hotels and/or villas in the hospitality sector
• A keen eye for detail, with an understanding of holiday makers’ expectations of ‘guest ready’
• Highly organised, and able to administer basic digital applications (Telegram, Asana)
• Knowledge of how and where to source common furnishing items on the island
• A strong understanding of common maintenance issues and their required fixes
• The ability to interact effectively with a wide range of professionals - most notably, fundis
• Strong understanding and practical knowledge of property maintenance tasks
