Ready to Apply?

If you're looking for a flexible role where you can make a real impact, we’d love to hear from you! Before you apply, make sure that you can get to the location for the hours stated, and the total weekly hours are in line with your expectations. Please note there is limited on‑site parking available at this location. If you are relying on public transport, check to make sure the location has good public transport links and that the cost and time of the commute are not excessive.

What happens next?

If your application is successful, we’ll invite you to take part in a short virtual assessment. It’s a great opportunity for you to showcase your skills and personality by answering seven questions relating to your cleaning background and five supplemental Yes or No questions — either on video or audio‑only, whichever you’re most comfortable with. You can complete it using a laptop, smartphone, or tablet — whatever works best for you — and you can do it at a time that suits you.

Don’t have the means to complete this or would prefer to speak with one of our team? No problem, we can also off a short telephone assessment as an alternative.
