The Engineering Transformation Specialist supports Melia Hotels International in modernising engineering, maintenance and operational processes across its hotel portfolio. The role typically requires a degree or professional background in engineering, facilities management, business transformation or a related discipline, together with experience in project coordination, process improvement and digital tools. Knowledge of hotel engineering, energy efficiency, sustainability and maintenance systems is highly valuable. The successful candidate should be analytical, organised and comfortable working with multiple departments and properties. Strong communication skills, stakeholder management, Spanish and English proficiency, and willingness to travel between hotels are likely to be expected. The position calls for someone who can turn operational needs into practical, measurable improvements and help teams adopt new technologies and working methods.
Melia Hotels International is one of Spain’s largest hotel groups and a major international hospitality company. Founded in Mallorca in 1956, the group operates hotels and resorts across Europe, the Americas, the Caribbean, Asia and Africa through brands including Gran Meliá, Meliá Hotels & Resorts, ME by Meliá, INNSiDE and Sol by Meliá. Its business covers leisure resorts, city hotels, premium properties and long-stay hospitality. Melia places strong emphasis on guest experience, responsible tourism, digital development, sustainability and operational excellence. Its headquarters are in Palma de Mallorca, making the Balearic Islands an important base for the organisation. Employees may work in hotel operations, corporate functions, technology, engineering, commercial teams and guest services, often within a multicultural and internationally focused environment.
Spain’s main employment hubs include Mallorca, Ibiza, Menorca and Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands. Hospitality, engineering, hotel technology, tourism management, construction, healthcare, retail and seasonal services provide many opportunities, particularly in resort areas. Mallorca offers the broadest professional market and a well-connected lifestyle, while Ibiza is lively and highly seasonal. Menorca is quieter, and the Canary Islands provide warm weather throughout the year with strong tourism demand. Spanish is important for daily life and many roles, although English and other languages are valuable in hotels. EU citizens can work without a visa after registering locally; non-EU nationals generally need a work and residence permit arranged with employer support. Relocation costs and rents can be high in Palma and Ibiza, so accommodation should be researched before accepting a position. Public transport varies, and a driving licence may be useful outside cities.
