Maintenance Manager - Toronto

About Us:

AIRE Ancient Baths are temples dedicated to creating the ultimate relaxation experience, where time does not exist. Inspired by the tradition of baths from ancient Roman, Greek, and Ottoman civilizations, the AIRE Experience always takes place in restored historical buildings in the center of globally acclaimed cities.

But what truly brings this experience to life goes beyond walls and water — it's the people behind it. Our true pride lies not only in the experience itself, but in the people who make it possible. At AIRE, we foster an inclusive, human, and collaborative environment. Our culture is rooted in the ambition to achieve the extraordinary, excellence in every detail, diversity as a source of creativity, and a warm and generous spirit that inspires, connects, and evolves.

Our Toronto Location:

Amidst the timeless charm of Toronto’s Fashion District, AIRE finds its home in a historic Edwardian Classicism building, once the office and warehouse of the Copp Clark publishing company. Built in 1912 and later designated a heritage site, its original wood structure and towering pillars remain, preserving the character of its storied past that once held the art of printing and now embraces the art of relaxation.

Honoring its literary and industrial past, the space is adorned with vintage books, printing presses which are subtle echoes of its history. AIRE Toronto offers a unique experience with a dry sauna and a Palestra, an indoor/outdoor bath area seamlessly connected to the interior through two jet baths, creating a tranquil escape where past and present merge in perfect harmony.
