Job Description

Every room at this bush lodge in East London should feel brand new, and you'll make that happen. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

You'll be based at a bush lodge in East London. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. There's a probation period of three months before the contract is confirmed.

The work, day to day

  • Clean bathrooms, showers and toilets with the correct colour-coded cloths.
  • Mix chemicals safely and store them as the MSDS sheet shows.
  • Hand in lost property with a written log entry.
  • Inspect rooms against the checklist before release to front office.
  • Wash, dry and press linen and table cloths in the laundry.
  • Update room status on the housekeeping app or board after each room.
  • Report broken fittings, leaks and damage to maintenance.

You'll need

  • Honest and trustworthy around guest belongings
  • Weekend and public holiday work
  • You work neatly and notice a hair on a pillow
  • Fit enough to lift mattresses and push trolleys all day

Nice if you have

  • A supervisor course or time spent running a floor
  • Chemical handling training
  • Laundry machine and steam press experience

What's in it for you

  • Monthly award for best room scores
  • Meals on duty
  • Uniform and protective gloves supplied
  • Staff transport from nearby townships for early shifts
