Chief Engineer - Poste Montane Lodge

$2,000 HIRING BONUS

Come join the team at Poste Montane Lodge as our Chief Engineer and play a key role in maintaining the comfort, functionality, and overall experience of one of Beaver Creek’s most distinctive mountain lodges! We’re seeking a resourceful and motivated maintenance professional who enjoys staying hands-on, solving problems, and taking ownership of property operations in a hospitality environment.

In this role, you’ll oversee the day-to-day performance of critical building systems, support long-term property upkeep, and help ensure the lodge consistently meets high standards for owners, guests, and team members alike. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who combines technical expertise with initiative, organization, and a strong service mindset!

Responsibilities Include:

• Overseeing the performance and upkeep of essential property systems including HVAC, plumbing, and electrical components
• Troubleshooting maintenance concerns, identifying root causes, and completing repairs with efficiency and attention to safety
• Supporting ongoing preventive maintenance efforts along with property upgrades and capital improvement projects
• Collaborating with leadership to identify opportunities that improve operations, reliability, and the overall guest environment
• Working closely with onsite departments and engineering leadership to maintain a smooth and well-functioning property

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

This role offers the chance to work in the heart of Beaver Creek with the flexibility and independence that come with a hands-on leadership position. Team members enjoy convenient onsite parking, a mountain lifestyle atmosphere, and the ability to balance operational priorities with access to world-class outdoor recreation including skiing, biking, and hiking.
