Caretaker for Hotel Skansen Öland – summer season

Do you want a varied summer job where no two days are the same?

Do you enjoy working practically, solving problems, and being an important part of the whole?

Then you could be our next caretaker at Hotel Skansen Öland.

About us

Hotel Skansen is located in Färjestaden on Öland, just after the bridge foundation. We are a hotel, spa, conference, and restaurant facility in constant development – we aim for more and work to be the obvious choice on Öland.

With us, you will find:

• 78 hotel rooms
• Several conference rooms (up to about 250 guests)
• Spa area with pool and relaxation
• Restaurant and event floor
• One of the world's largest whiskey cellars

Summer with us is intense, lively, and filled with guests – and this is where you come into the picture.

About the role

As a caretaker with us, you have a key role in ensuring everything works – every day, especially during our busiest period.

The work is varied and requires you to know a little about a lot. You switch between different tasks and are both handy and solution-oriented. One day you fix minor issues in hotel rooms or clear a drain, the next day you set up conference rooms, mow the lawn, or ensure our outdoor areas are in top condition.

You work closely with all departments and are a natural part of the guest experience – even in the practical aspects.

Examples of work tasks:

• Guest interaction and service
• Addressing and repairing reported issues
• Preventive maintenance, indoors and outdoors
• Setting up conference rooms
• Pool maintenance
• Trash disposal and goods reception
• Park maintenance (lawn mowing, watering, weed removal)
• Physically demanding tasks

In short – a role for you who enjoy variety and pace.

• Have an eye for detail and take initiative on what needs to be done
• Are solution-oriented and can make your own decisions
• Thrive in a team and contribute with a positive attitude
• Enjoy working in an environment where a lot is happening

You need:

• To have reached the age of majority, as you will work with pool chemicals.
• Speak Swedish fluently

Employment conditions

• Seasonal employment approximately 60% weeks 25–33
• Every other weekend starting immediately
• Varying work hours – we are open all days of the week
