You'll need

  • You take pride in a job done properly, even when nobody checks
  • Comfortable using cleaning chemicals safely with gloves
  • Grade 10 or higher

Helpful, not essential

How to apply for this job

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: police clearance certificate if the site requires it 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. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 7 working days.

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

Applying is free. Nobody from How2Apply will ever ask you to pay for anything to get this job.

How to stand out

  • Ask a former supervisor if you can put their number on your CV. Cleaning contractors almost always phone a reference.
  • Mention any machines you can use, like a scrubber or polisher. Machine cleaners are harder to find and often get picked first.
