- Career Pathway: Demonstrate your reliability and skills, and you could be offered a permanent contract with our client or be first in line for supervisory roles.
- Support: You’re not on your own. You’ll have a dedicated consultant for support, just as we provide for our Hospitality Staff in London or our Construction Staffing Service teams.
As Housekeeping Staff, you will be responsible for maintaining exceptional standards of cleanliness, hygiene, and order. Your day-to-day duties will be crucial to the smooth operation and positive impression of the client's premises.
- Thorough Cleaning & Sanitisation: Perform detailed cleaning of all assigned areas including guest rooms, offices, lobbies, bathrooms, and communal spaces. This involves dusting, vacuuming, mopping, polishing surfaces, and sanitising high-touch points to meet health and safety standards.

- Compliance & Safety: Adhering strictly to all COSHH regulations when handling chemicals, following manual handling procedures, and maintaining a safe working environment for yourself and others. Reporting any maintenance issues or hazards immediately.
To be successful in this role, you need a combination of practical skills, a strong work ethic, and the right attitude. We value reliability and a keen eye for detail above all.
- Proven Experience: Previous experience in a commercial housekeeping, hotel cleaning, or similar role is highly desirable. We also welcome applications from candidates with domestic cleaning experience who are looking to move into the commercial sector.
- Physical Stamina & Mobility: The role involves prolonged standing, bending, lifting (within safe limits), pushing trolleys, and moving between floors. A good level of physical fitness is required.
- Attention to Detail & Pride in Work: An ability to work to a high standard consistently, with a keen eye for spots, smudges, and untidiness that others might miss.
- Reliability & Punctuality: Absolute must-haves. Our clients depend on staff arriving on time for their shifts. A strong sense of responsibility is non-negotiable.
- Basic English Communication: Sufficient to understand instructions, read safety labels, and communicate basic information to supervisors or team members.
