Guest Room Attendant (Lodge)

You'll turn rooms around at a city business hotel in Germiston so every guest walks into a room that feels new. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

You'll report in Germiston. Relocation is not covered for this one.

• Strip and make beds to the hotel's standard, hospital corners included
• Load, wash, dry and press linen in the hotel laundry
• Clean lobby, lifts and public toilets through the day
• Log lost property with the guest's room number and date
• Clean bathrooms, replace towels and restock guest toiletries

• Friendly and polite if you meet guests in the corridor
• Physically able to push trolleys and turn mattresses
• Honest, since you work in guests' rooms alone

• Uniform supplied and laundered
• Share of the service charge or guest tips
• Staff accommodation at remote lodges
