The Role:

As our Maintenance Manager, you will oversee a team of maintenance specialists, provide expert guidance on technical queries and personally handle more complex maintenance issues that require advanced expertise. This position combines management, technical problem-solving and a commitment to delivering exceptional service to our clients.

  • Lead and manage a team of maintenance specialists, ensuring high-quality service delivery and work

  • Visit sites to assess quality standards and assist with complex issues
  • Provide expert guidance to team members to resolve technical challenges promptly

Why Kitt?

The world of work has shifted forever. As people everywhere prioritise purpose over their paychecks, company culture has been thrown into the spotlight. But the problem is, too many companies are showing up to work in bland, cookie-cutter offices. We’re leading this change.

Real company culture can only be built in-person, in the real world – and for it to be authentic it needs its very own, personalised space. That’s why we create offices as unique as the brands and the people who work there. We’re long-term culture partners to our clients long after they’ve signed the lease and chosen the paint colours.
