Jobbeschreibung

Since 1981, City Cleaning has built a reputation for reliable, high-quality cleaning across more than 1,000 workplaces nationwide. With 700+ staff, we're 100% NZ-owned and one of the country's largest independent commercial cleaning companies. Our values — We Care, We Listen, We Deliver, We Belong — aren't just words on a wall.
