Job Description

Check-out to check-in in under an hour, room after room, at a game lodge in Cape Town CBD. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

Location: Cape Town CBD, Western Cape. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first.

What your day looks like

  • Work through a room list, marking rooms clean on the housekeeping board
  • Keep your trolley stocked and neat before each shift
  • Load, wash, dry and press linen in the hotel laundry
  • Clean bathrooms, replace towels and restock guest toiletries
  • Clean lobby, lifts and public toilets through the day
  • Report maintenance faults like dripping taps or broken lights

Must-haves

  • Honest, since you work in guests' rooms alone
  • Quick and thorough, with a target of about 14 to 16 rooms a shift
  • Available on weekends, holidays and in peak season
  • Physically able to push trolleys and turn mattresses
  • Grade 10 or matric
  • Friendly and polite if you meet guests in the corridor

On offer

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