Laundry Attendant (Hotel Linen Room) – Entry Level

Housekeeping at a conference hotel in Brackenfell is steady work with room to grow into supervising. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

The work is in Brackenfell, Western Cape, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. The first two weeks are spent shadowing someone experienced.
