Engineering is the department that keeps everything working perfectly at The Ned. This isn't always easy. Our building was originally designed as a bank, not a hotel, which makes the role both complex and endlessly interesting. The Engineering team plays a critical role in ensuring The Ned delivers a seamless experience for members, guests and team members, every day. At The Ned, we don't just celebrate our diversity, we challenge ourselves to do even better. The Ned is committed to being the best place to work, and ensuring that we have a leading diversity, equity and inclusion programme is central to making that vision a reality. The Ned and Ned's Club are a global collection of hotels, clubs, spas and restaurants for like-minded individuals to meet, work and have a good time. The Ned launched in 2017 in the heart of the City, in the former Midland Bank headquarters. The Ned City of London houses Ned's Club, a private members' space, gym and rooftop, alongside a public spa, ten restaurants and bars, and 250 hotel bedrooms. Responsibilities
