Job Description

A cleaning contractor in Durban Central needs dependable cleaners for an university campus. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

The site is in Durban Central; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. There's a probation period of three months before the contract is confirmed.

The work, day to day

  • Mix cleaning chemicals at the dilution shown on the label, never by guesswork
  • Refill toilet paper, hand towel and soap dispensers
  • Clean glass doors and internal windows without streaks
  • Vacuum carpets and mop hard floors following the daily cleaning schedule
  • Report broken fittings, leaks or empty stock to the site supervisor
  • Sign the ablution checklist on the back of the door after each clean

Must-haves

  • Grade 10 or higher
  • Honest, because you work around laptops and personal items
  • Able to stand, bend and walk for a full shift
  • Comfortable using cleaning chemicals safely with gloves
  • Clean criminal record for most corporate sites

Helpful, not essential

  • Supervisory experience for team leader posts
  • Chemical handling training from a supplier or contractor
  • Previous contract cleaning experience with a reference

What you get

  • UIF and paid leave under the cleaning sector rules
  • Permanent contract once the site contract is secured
  • Paid overtime for weekend deep cleans

Applying, step by step

  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): police clearance certificate if the site requires it plus CV with references from previous cleaning sites.
  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.
