Job Description

Early starts, clear routines and a steady contract at an university campus in Pinetown. Good for someone who wants to build a solid track record they can put on their CV.

You'll report in Pinetown. Relocation is not covered for this one.

The work, day to day

  • Clean the kitchenette, wash cups and wipe down the fridge and microwave
  • Clean glass doors and internal windows without streaks
  • Clean and disinfect toilets, basins and urinals several times a shift
  • Report broken fittings, leaks or empty stock to the site supervisor
  • Mix cleaning chemicals at the dilution shown on the label, never by guesswork
  • Set up and clear boardrooms before and after meetings
  • Vacuum carpets and mop hard floors following the daily cleaning schedule

You'll need

  • You take pride in a job done properly, even when nobody checks
  • Comfortable using cleaning chemicals safely with gloves
  • Able to stand, bend and walk for a full shift
  • Clean criminal record for most corporate sites
  • Honest, because you work around laptops and personal items

Helpful, not essential

  • Tea service or kitchen experience
  • Previous contract cleaning experience with a reference

On offer

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

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Pinetown really suit you before you apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: certified copy of your ID, CV with references from previous cleaning sites plus police clearance certificate if the site requires it.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 10 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 Pinetown.

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.
