Job Description

A cleaning contractor in Soweto needs dependable cleaners for a government office building. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

This post is Soweto-based, with most of your time spent at a government office building.

What your day looks like

  • Clean the kitchenette, wash cups and wipe down the fridge and microwave
  • Vacuum carpets and mop hard floors following the daily cleaning schedule
  • Clean glass doors and internal windows without streaks
  • Sign the ablution checklist on the back of the door after each clean
  • Run a scrubber-dryer machine on large tiled areas

You'll need

  • You take pride in a job done properly, even when nobody checks
  • Grade 10 or higher
  • Honest, because you work around laptops and personal items
  • Able to start early, often 05:00 or 06:00
  • Clean criminal record for most corporate sites

Extra points for

  • Tea service or kitchen experience
  • Chemical handling training from a supplier or contractor

What you get

  • Uniform and cleaning gloves provided
  • UIF and paid leave under the cleaning sector rules
  • Paid overtime for weekend deep cleans

How to apply for this job

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: police clearance certificate if the site requires it, CV with references from previous cleaning sites plus certified copy of your ID.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 9 working days, usually by phone.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Soweto.

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.

Tips to get shortlisted

  • List each site you have cleaned (office, mall, school) and how long you stayed. Contractors want people who stick with a site.
  • Mention any machines you can use, like a scrubber or polisher. Machine cleaners are harder to find and often get picked first.
