Job Description

Clean rooms mean good reviews, and this serviced apartment block in Cape Town CBD lives on reviews. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

The work is in Cape Town CBD, Western Cape, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

The work, day to day

  • Wash, dry and press linen and table cloths in the laundry.
  • Clean bathrooms, showers and toilets with the correct colour-coded cloths.
  • Update room status on the housekeeping app or board after each room.
  • Mix chemicals safely and store them as the MSDS sheet shows.
  • Vacuum, mop and dust rooms from top to bottom.
  • Inspect rooms against the checklist before release to front office.

What you need

  • Fit enough to lift mattresses and push trolleys all day
  • You work neatly and notice a hair on a pillow
  • Grade 10 or higher
  • Honest and trustworthy around guest belongings
  • Weekend and public holiday work
  • You can finish around 14 rooms in a shift

On offer

  • Monthly award for best room scores
  • Meals on duty
  • Staff transport from nearby townships for early shifts
  • Uniform and protective gloves supplied
