Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The AC Technician is responsible for installing, inspecting, maintaining and repairing air-conditioning, ventilation and refrigeration systems throughout the hotel. Candidates should have relevant technical training or vocational certification, practical experience with HVAC equipment, and knowledge of electrical and mechanical systems. The role requires the ability to diagnose faults, complete preventive-maintenance tasks, respond to guest and operational requests, and follow safety procedures. Marriott expects reliable, physically capable team members who can work independently or with an engineering team, maintain accurate service records, communicate professionally, and provide prompt support in a luxury-hotel environment. Flexibility for shifts, weekends and emergency call-outs is normally required.
Can I work in Qatar?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: Employer-sponsored work visa under a Ministry of Labour recruitment approval set by job and nationality; employers normally pay, and recruiters may not charge you.
Watch for: The hotel's recruitment approval is set by job and nationality, so it may have no slot for your passport. If your permit is cancelled you must leave within 14 days (since 15 June 2026).
Official source: Ministry of Interior: visa services (work and visit visas). Checked November 2026.
