Job Description

You'll clean and set up guest rooms at a self-catering resort in Komani to a checklist standard. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

You'll be based at a self-catering resort in Komani. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What you'll actually do

  • Vacuum, mop and dust rooms from top to bottom.
  • Hand in lost property with a written log entry.
  • Wash, dry and press linen and table cloths in the laundry.
  • Restock minibars, amenities and tea trays and note what was used.
  • Update room status on the housekeeping app or board after each room.

You'll need

  • Fit enough to lift mattresses and push trolleys all day
  • Grade 10 or higher
  • Hotel, guesthouse or domestic cleaning experience
  • You work neatly and notice a hair on a pillow
  • Weekend and public holiday work
  • You can finish around 14 rooms in a shift

Helpful, not essential

  • Chemical handling training
  • A supervisor course or time spent running a floor
  • Laundry machine and steam press experience

What's in it for you

  • Staff transport from nearby townships for early shifts
  • Monthly award for best room scores
  • Meals on duty

  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 8 working days.

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.
