New Permanent Opportunity - Cleaning Manager - Birmingham - £35,000

Are you an experienced Cleaning Manager looking for a new challenge? Would you like the opportunity to take full ownership of a large cleaning operation, leading a sizeable team and ensuring consistently high standards across the site?

We are currently recruiting for an experienced Cleaning Manager to take responsibility for a large site in Birmingham, offering a salary of £35,000.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys being hands-on, visible and involved in the day-to-day running of a busy operation. You'll be responsible for managing a large team, maintaining standards, driving performance and working closely with the client and wider management team.

What's in it for you?

• £35,000 basic salary

• Permanent position

• Standard working hours of 8:00am - 5:00pm

• Responsibility for a large site in Birmingham

• Management of a large cleaning team

• Opportunity to take full ownership of site standards and performance

• Supportive management team

• Varied and fast-paced working environment

• Opportunity to develop and progress within a well-established business

• A role where you can make a genuine impact on the operation and the team

Your Role

As Cleaning Manager, you'll be responsible for the overall cleaning operation at the site, ensuring excellent standards are maintained and the team is well managed, motivated and appropriately resourced.

You'll be a visible presence on site, building strong relationships with your team and client while taking ownership of the overall service delivery.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Managing the day-to-day cleaning operation across the site

• Leading, motivating and supporting a large cleaning team

• Planning rotas and ensuring appropriate staffing levels

• Carrying out regular quality checks and site inspections

• Maintaining consistently high cleaning and presentation standards

Hours & Working Pattern

The standard working hours for this role are 8:00am - 5:00pm but dropping on to an early or late shift where required.

This is a hands-on management role, so flexibility is important. While 8:00am-5:00pm will be the normal working pattern, the successful candidate will need to be comfortable occasionally starting earlier or finishing later when required.

This could include dropping onto an early or late shift to spend time with the cleaning team, understand the challenges they are facing, support the operation and ensure standards are being maintained across all shifts.

We are looking for someone who wants to be visible and involved, rather than simply managing the operation from an office.

About You

You'll ideally have:

• Previous experience as a Cleaning Manager, Cleaning Supervisor, Contract Manager, Site Manager or similar

• Experience managing large cleaning teams

• Strong leadership and people-management skills

• Excellent organisational and communication skills

• A proactive approach to maintaining high standards

• Experience within facilities management, retail, logistics, hospitality, leisure, manufacturing or another large-scale operational environment would be advantageous

• A good understanding of Health & Safety and cleaning standards

• Strong client and stakeholder management skills

• The ability to manage performance and deal confidently with people issues

• A hands-on and visible management style

• The flexibility to occasionally work outside of standard hours when the operation requires it

• A reliable, professional and proactive approach

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who leads from the front. You'll be managing a large team, so being visible, approachable and willing to spend time with the people delivering the service every day is essential.
