Laundry Attendant (Hotel Linen Room)

You'll turn rooms around at a conference hotel in Mossel Bay so every guest walks into a room that feels new. Good for someone who wants to build a solid track record they can put on their CV.

The site is in Mossel Bay; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

• 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
• Strip and make beds to the hotel's standard, hospital corners included
• Do evening turndowns, closing curtains and setting out slippers

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

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

• If you worked in a star-graded hotel, say which grading. It tells them the standard you already know.
• Write how many rooms you usually cleaned per shift. Head housekeepers care about pace as much as quality.
