Job Description

Check-out to check-in in under an hour, room after room, at a game lodge in eMalahleni. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

This post is in eMalahleni (Mpumalanga). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

What you'll actually do

  • Vacuum, dust and check the minibar in each room
  • Do evening turndowns, closing curtains and setting out slippers
  • Strip and make beds to the hotel's standard, hospital corners included
  • Clean lobby, lifts and public toilets through the day
  • Clean bathrooms, replace towels and restock guest toiletries

Must-haves

  • Grade 10 or matric
  • Quick and thorough, with a target of about 14 to 16 rooms a shift
  • Well groomed
  • Honest, since you work in guests' rooms alone

Nice if you have

  • Experience with industrial laundry machines
  • Previous hotel or guesthouse housekeeping experience
  • A hospitality short course or NQF Level 2 accommodation services certificate

On offer

  • Share of the service charge or guest tips
  • Uniform supplied and laundered
  • Staff accommodation at remote lodges
  • Meals on duty from the staff kitchen

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in eMalahleni really suit you before you apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): CV listing hotels or guesthouses with dates, any hospitality training certificates plus ID copy with a recent certification stamp.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 8 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around eMalahleni.

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.

Tips to get shortlisted

  • Mention seasonal availability for December and Easter. Coastal and lodge properties hire heavily before those peaks.
  • If you worked in a star-graded hotel, say which grading. It tells them the standard you already know.
