Job Description

You'll keep an university campus in Durban Central clean, stocked and fresh before the people arrive. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

Location: Durban Central, KwaZulu-Natal. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

The work, day to day

Refill toilet paper, hand towel and soap dispensers
Clean glass doors and internal windows without streaks
Empty bins and take waste to the correct recycling or general skip
Clean and disinfect toilets, basins and urinals several times a shift
Vacuum carpets and mop hard floors following the daily cleaning schedule

You'll need

You take pride in a job done properly, even when nobody checks
Able to stand, bend and walk for a full shift
Able to start early, often 05:00 or 06:00
Comfortable using cleaning chemicals safely with gloves
Clean criminal record for most corporate sites
Honest, because you work around laptops and personal items

On offer

Permanent contract once the site contract is secured
Paid overtime for weekend deep cleans
Uniform and cleaning gloves provided
UIF and paid leave under the cleaning sector rules

Applying, step by step

Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: CV with references from previous cleaning sites, police clearance certificate if the site requires it plus certified copy of your ID.
Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 9 working days.

How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Durban Central; applications go into our talent pool and shortlisted candidates are introduced directly.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Before you hit apply

Ask a former supervisor if you can put their number on your CV. Cleaning contractors almost always phone a reference.
List each site you have cleaned (office, mall, school) and how long you stayed. Contractors want people who stick with a site.
