GLL is looking for Cleaning Assistants to work at Robinson Pools and Fitness, based in Bedford.

If you have the skills and ambition to join us as a Cleaning Assistant, there has never been a more exciting time to join us. This is more than a Cleaning Assistant job, it's a career.

As a Cleaning Assistant, you’ll be enthusiastic and hard-working with a real attention to detail as you’ll be responsible for the day-to-day cleaning and maintenance of the centre. Our Changing Areas and Gym can be very busy, so you’ll need to thrive in this setting.

Adhering to Health and Safety requirements and regulations is crucial, so you’ll need to be conscientious to carry out all duties to meet our high customer care standards. Ideally, you’ll have experience of cleaning in a busy environment with good customer care skills and knowledge of COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health). If you don’t yet have it, we’ll provide full training on machinery and chemical use.

What you’ll do:

1. Day-to-day cleaning and maintenance of the centre.
2. Adhere to Health and Safety requirements and regulations.
3. Clean, restock, and supply designated areas.
4. Complete deep cleaning as scheduled.
5. Conduct area checks.
6. Perform stock checks and maintain supply rooms.
7. Assist with sandwich preparation for visiting groups.

What you need:

• Knowledge of Health and Safety and COSHH.
• Conscientious and committed attitude.
• Ability to meet high customer care standards.
• Great team player.
• Ability to multitask in busy areas based on customer feedback.

As a leader in the leisure industry, we offer scope to progress your career and variety in your job. As a charitable social enterprise and staff-owned cooperative, GLL provides a unique opportunity for your career development.

The basics;

• We are an accredited Living Wage employer with industry-leading pay rates.
• Extensive Learning & Development support available.
• A uniform will be supplied and must be worn.

GLL is Values Driven, not Profit Driven. We work to benefit the communities we serve.

As a staff-owned organization, you can join the Society and have a stake in your workplace.

Additional employee benefits include:

• Access to a pension scheme.
• Provided lunch during shifts.
• Health Assurance and counseling services.
• Tax-efficient Ride to Work bicycle scheme.
• Free annual eye tests.
• Discounted nationwide leisure centre membership for you and your partner, including GLL Extras!

Post-probation, you can join the GLL Society, with benefits such as:
