Facilities Specialist

$XX–$XX/hour | Full-time/FlexTime | Daytime/Flexible Schedule | Grand Rapids

Join Essence Hospitality Group as a Facilities Specialist supporting Bistro Bella Vita, Grove and Lucy's. This is a hands-on position for someone who enjoys fixing things, improving spaces and seeing the results of their work.

Working alongside our Facilities Manager, you'll help handle the day-to-day maintenance, preventative upkeep, minor repairs and improvement projects that keep our restaurants looking and functioning their best.

Consistent schedule. Variety in your work. Benefits eligibility starting at an average of 25 hours/week. Opportunity to learn and grow within EHG.

Why Work With Us?

EHG offers benefits and perks designed for restaurant professionals, including:

Medical and prescription coverage

Benefits eligibility starting at an average of 25 hours/week

Dental and vision coverage

Employee dining discounts at EHG restaurants

Consistent, year-round work

Work across three established Grand Rapids restaurants

Variety. This isn't a position where you'll do the same thing every day.

Opportunity to learn additional maintenance and facilities skills while working directly with our Facilities Manager

Opportunity for increased responsibility as your skills and knowledge grow

Be part of a locally owned and growing hospitality group

What You'll Do

Complete facility maintenance and property punch lists

Handle minor repairs and replace basic hardware and fixtures

Complete paint touch-ups and small painting projects

Maintain walls, trim, grout and other building surfaces

Perform detailed facility cleaning beyond normal restaurant cleaning

Clean vents, piping, walls, windowsills, corners and other difficult-to-reach areas

Move furniture or equipment when needed to access work areas

Maintain doors, frames, entrances, rails and other building features

Assist with preventative maintenance

Work alongside the Facilities Manager on larger repairs and improvement projects

Identify maintenance needs while working throughout our properties

Keep tools, supplies and work areas clean and organized

Communicate completed work, issues and additional repair needs

What We're Looking For

You don't need to be a licensed tradesperson. We're looking for someone who is dependable, capable, observant and willing to learn.

You should be comfortable:

Working independently from a prioritized task list

Using basic hand and power tools

Tackling a wide variety of physical projects

Figuring out how to complete straightforward repairs and maintenance tasks

Asking questions when something is outside your knowledge or skill level

Moving between EHG restaurant locations as needed

Safely using ladders and performing physical work throughout a shift

Previous experience in maintenance, construction, property care, restaurants or a similar hands-on environment is helpful, but aptitude, reliability and initiative matter just as much to us.

Opportunity to Grow

This doesn't have to be a dead-end maintenance job.

You'll work directly with an experienced Facilities Manager and have the opportunity to develop broader skills in restaurant facilities, preventative maintenance, repairs and property management. As your capabilities grow, so can the complexity of the projects and responsibilities you take on.

About Essence Hospitality Group

Essence Hospitality Group is a locally owned Grand Rapids restaurant group that includes Bistro Bella Vita, Grove and Lucy's. Our facilities team supports all three restaurants and plays an important role in keeping our spaces safe, functional and well cared for.
