About the Role

Your responsibilities will include a range of cleaning tasks, including:

• Mopping, vacuuming, and dusting
• Cleaning toilets, floors and offices
• Emptying bins and sanitising surfaces
• Litter picking within yard and car park areas

This is a hands-on role that involves manual handling, but don't worry-we'll provide all the training and support you need to succeed.

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.

Please note: This vacancy may close early once we receive enough applications-so don't wait!
