Pest Control and Hygiene Assistant

You'll do the heavy cleaning at a mining workshop in Brits, the kind that needs machines, chemicals and training. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

Location: Brits, North West. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first.
