Job description

Late Night Leisure Cleaner (7pm to Midnight)

Job Type: Part Time (Around 15 hours per week, 3 days a week including some weekends)

The Role Outline: Your Shift at a Glance

Let's get straight to the point. Trying to deep clean a poolside or changing room while it is packed with members is practically impossible. Our Leisure Clubs gets incredibly busy during the day, which means we need a dedicated night owl to come in when the doors close and work their magic. We are looking for someone to work late evenings from 7pm until midnight, around three days a week (including some weekends), to completely reset the club for the next day.

Why Village?

At Village, we do hospitality a little differently. We are all about personality, genuine connections, and creating great experiences.

We know that our early morning members rely entirely on the quiet, behind the scenes graft of our late night team. If you are friendly, positive, and take real pride in seeing a gleaming gym floor or a spotless changing room, we will give you all the support and training you need. Because it really does take a Village.

The Perks of the Late Shift

Let's be honest about why this 7pm to midnight shift is actually brilliant:

• Peace and Quiet: No dodging busy members or pausing your work every two minutes while someone uses the showers.
• Zone Out: Stick your headphones in, listen to a podcast, get your head down, and just crack on with the job.
• The Hours: Working three evenings a week leaves your days completely free. Perfect if you are naturally a night owl, a student, or just someone who needs to completely bypass the standard 9 to 5 routine.

Your Shift: What You Will Actually Be Doing

You do not need years of experience for this. We provide full training. We just need someone reliable who doesn't mind rolling their sleeves up. Your main duties will be:

• Poolside Deep Cleaning: Scrubbing the wet areas so they are immaculate and safe for the early morning swimmers.
• Changing Room Resets: Ensuring the showers, lockers, and floors are squeaky clean and fully stocked.
• Gym Equipment Detailing: Wiping down and sanitising the machines so they are ready for the morning rush.

The Village Perks: What Is In It For You?

• Gym Membership: 2 x complimentary gym memberships at your home hotel (perfect for a workout before your shift).
• Hotel Stays: Hotel rooms from £20 across our 35 properties.
• Food & Drink: 50% off food and drink for you and up to 5 guests, plus 75% off Sunday dinner for up to 6 people.
• Friends & Family: 2 friends or family members get 25% off F&B, even when you are not there.
• Retail & Lifestyle: Hundreds of brand discounts via the Village app.
• Support: 24/7 Mental Health support via our Employee Assistance Programme.
• Rewards: Excellent Reward and Recognition Incentive schemes, plus anniversary rewards for key milestones.
• Family & Future: Enhanced maternity and paternity benefits, Company Pension scheme, and Life Insurance. (T&Cs apply based on your contract).
• Culture: A host of BIG People Days to celebrate, reward, and recognise our wonderful employees and their local communities.

But what we need from you...

• A passion for everything hospitality, leisure, and fitness.
• The ability to deliver outstanding customer service leading to exceptional member satisfaction.
• Solutions orientated with an eye for spotting issues before they happen.
• Ability to work in compliance with company and legal guidelines, keeping yourself, colleagues, and customers safe.

Think You Have Got the Right Energy?

We are not looking for perfect CVs, we are looking for great people who take pride in their work.

At Village, we’re all about personality, ambition, and bringing your real self to work. Diverse perspectives are what keep our business buzzing, so whatever your background, you’ll find a welcoming place to build your career here.
