• Clean bathrooms, replace towels and restock guest toiletries
• Keep your trolley stocked and neat before each shift

• Quick and thorough, with a target of about 14 to 16 rooms a shift
• Friendly and polite if you meet guests in the corridor
• Grade 10 or matric
• Physically able to push trolleys and turn mattresses
