Cleaning Team Leader (Office Park) – Permanent

People notice a clean shopping centre; in Pietermaritzburg, you would be the reason it shines. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

Location: Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.
