Job description

Cleaning Technician – 4 Days a Week | School-Friendly Hours | Eltham

Join Cultivate Clean – a growing, eco-conscious cleaning company doing things differently.

About the role

We're growing our team of Cleaning Technicians who deliver exceptional residential cleaning services across Eltham and surrounding suburbs.

At Cultivate Clean, we hire for values and attitude, and train for skills. No cleaning experience is necessary, what matters most is who you are and how you approach your work.

Our values are at the heart of everything we do, from how we care for our clients' homes to how we support one another as a team.

We encourage you to take a look at the values on our website. If you read them and think, "That's me!" then we'd really love to hear from you.

You’ll receive comprehensive, hands‑on training in our cleaning methods, products and systems before working independently in our clients' homes.

Hours and flexibility

We know that work needs to fit around life, especially family.

• Work 4 days a week, Monday to Friday – choose which weekday you'd prefer to have off.

• School-friendly hours – we can schedule around school drop‑offs and pick‑ups.

• Local, regular clients in Eltham and surrounding suburbs.

• Consistent, ongoing work as part of an established and growing team.

You’ll need a reliable car and a valid driver's licence, as you’ll travel between clients' homes during the day. Plus a current Police Check.

We particularly encourage applications from people living within 15–20 minutes of Eltham.

Key responsibilities

• Deliver consistently high-quality residential cleaning to Cultivate Clean standards.

• Follow our established cleaning processes, checklists and instructions.

• Use eco‑friendly cleaning products safely, correctly and efficiently.

• Take pride in the little details that make a home feel beautifully clean.

• Work respectfully and discreetly in our clients' private homes.

• Communicate warmly and professionally with clients and teammates.

• Arrive on time, prepared and ready to work.

• Work independently and take ownership of your results once trained.

• Follow safe work practices and report hazards or incidents promptly.

About you

No professional cleaning experience required!

We're far more interested in finding the right people than the perfect résumé.

You’ll be someone who:

• Is reliable, trustworthy and takes personal responsibility.

• Has a positive, can‑do attitude and a willingness to learn.

• Takes genuine pride in doing a job properly.

• Is naturally attentive to detail.

• Can follow systems, accept feedback and continually improve.

• Is physically capable of an active, hands‑on role.

• Is kind, respectful and comfortable working in family homes.

• Enjoys working independently but also values being part of a team.

• Shares our commitment to quality, professionalism and caring for people and the environment.

Why join Cultivate Clean?

We're a young, fast‑growing local business with big ambitions, and we're building a team that can grow with us.

We offer:

• Competitive hourly pay.

• Comprehensive, hands‑on training – no experience necessary.

• Flexible, family-friendly working hours.

• A supportive, friendly and professional team.

• Quality equipment and thoughtfully selected eco‑friendly products.

• Local work without a long commute.

• Real opportunities for career progression.

As Cultivate Clean grows, we’re looking to develop future Team Leaders, Trainers and Quality Supervisors from within our team.

If you’ve got leadership potential, ambition or simply a desire to keep learning and growing, we’d love to help you develop those skills.
