Maintenance Technician (Thursday–Monday | Events & Tasting Room Support)
Description

About Us


Pippin Hill Farm & Vineyard is a premier destination in Virginia’s wine country, known for its vineyards, gardens, and high-level hospitality. We operate a large, guest-facing property with a busy tasting room and a full wedding and event program.


The Role


We’re looking for an experienced Maintenance Technician to be onsite during our busiest service periods — supporting tasting room operations and weddings in real time.

This is not a behind-the-scenes role. You’ll be working during peak guest hours, troubleshooting issues as they happen, and ensuring the property runs smoothly during live service.


What You’ll Do

  • Troubleshoot and repair HVAC systems, commercial kitchen equipment, plumbing, electrical, and general building systems
  • Provide onsite support during peak hours (especially weekends)
  • Quickly assess issues, fix what you can, and escalate to vendors when needed
  • Handle preventative maintenance and daily upkeep across the property
  • Support events by ensuring all systems are operational before and during service

What We’re Looking For (Important)

  • Proven experience with HVAC and commercial kitchen equipment is required
  • Strong troubleshooting skills — you can diagnose and act quickly
  • Experience in hospitality, commercial, or multi-building environments preferred
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, guest-facing environment
  • Able to communicate and interact professionally with staff and guests
  • Not a fit for candidates with only residential/home repair experience

Schedule

  • Thursday – Monday (weekends required)
  • Saturday & Sunday: 10 AM – 6 PM, with flexibility to stay later based on events

Why This Role

  • Be a key part of live service operations, not just background support
  • Work on a dynamic property with events, guests, and constant movement
  • Join a strong team with opportunities to grow

Benefits

  • Competitive hourly pay (based on experience)
  • Employee discounts (food, wine, merchandise)
  • Training and development opportunities
