Job Description

A cleaning contractor in Upington needs dependable cleaners for a shopping centre. Good for someone who wants to build a solid track record they can put on their CV.

You'll be based at a shopping centre in Upington. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

What you'll actually do

  • Empty bins and take waste to the correct recycling or general skip
  • Clean and disinfect toilets, basins and urinals several times a shift
  • Clean glass doors and internal windows without streaks
  • Report broken fittings, leaks or empty stock to the site supervisor
  • Mix cleaning chemicals at the dilution shown on the label, never by guesswork

You'll need

  • Able to start early, often 05:00 or 06:00
  • Able to stand, bend and walk for a full shift
  • You take pride in a job done properly, even when nobody checks
  • Honest, because you work around laptops and personal items
  • Comfortable using cleaning chemicals safely with gloves
  • Grade 10 or higher

Helpful, not essential

  • Training on a floor polisher or scrubber machine
  • Tea service or kitchen experience
  • Chemical handling training from a supplier or contractor

What you get

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

How to apply

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): certified copy of your ID plus police clearance certificate if the site requires it.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 9 working days.
