Job Description

Check-out to check-in in under an hour, room after room, at a game lodge in Soweto. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

This post is in Soweto (Gauteng). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

What your day looks like

  • Report maintenance faults like dripping taps or broken lights
  • Clean lobby, lifts and public toilets through the day
  • Do evening turndowns, closing curtains and setting out slippers
  • Strip and make beds to the hotel's standard, hospital corners included
  • Work through a room list, marking rooms clean on the housekeeping board
  • Log lost property with the guest's room number and date

Must-haves

  • Well groomed
  • 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

Extra points for

  • Previous hotel or guesthouse housekeeping experience
  • A hospitality short course or NQF Level 2 accommodation services certificate

What you get

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

How to apply

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): CV listing hotels or guesthouses with dates, ID copy with a recent certification stamp plus any hospitality training certificates.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 10 working days, usually by phone.

How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Soweto; applications go into our talent pool and shortlisted candidates are introduced directly.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

  • Write how many rooms you usually cleaned per shift. Head housekeepers care about pace as much as quality.
  • Mention seasonal availability for December and Easter. Coastal and lodge properties hire heavily before those peaks.
