Job Description

Every room at this bush lodge in Mthatha should feel brand new, and you'll make that happen. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

The site is in Mthatha; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

  • Wash, dry and press linen and table cloths in the laundry.
  • Update room status on the housekeeping app or board after each room.
  • Inspect rooms against the checklist before release to front office.
  • Clean bathrooms, showers and toilets with the correct colour-coded cloths.
  • Do evening turndowns with chocolates and curtain closing.
  • Vacuum, mop and dust rooms from top to bottom.

You'll need

  • You work neatly and notice a hair on a pillow
  • Hotel, guesthouse or domestic cleaning experience
  • Honest and trustworthy around guest belongings
  • You can finish around 14 rooms in a shift

What you get

  • Meals on duty
  • Monthly award for best room scores
