How to apply for this job

Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): any hospitality training certificates plus ID copy with a recent certification stamp.
Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 9 working days, usually by phone.

How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Somerset West; 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.

Before you hit apply

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