About the Role: Responsibilities, Skills, and Requirements
Ever notice how a freshly made bed or a spotless hallway can instantly lift your mood? If you have a knack for turning any space into a welcoming retreat, you might be the Housekeeper we’re looking for. In this hands-on role, you’ll help create that crucial feeling of comfort and order for everyone who walks through our doors. With flexible shifts and a supportive team, this is an opportunity to turn your eye for detail into a truly valued skill.
About the Company
We’re a team that believes little touches make a big difference. Whether it’s setting up fresh flowers in the lobby or swapping stories over morning coffee, our workspace is defined by warmth, mutual respect, and old-fashioned teamwork. We’re steadily growing, but our values remain grounded: treat everyone like family, show pride in every room, and celebrate effort as much as results. Thursdays mean birthday treats in the staff lounge, and management never forgets a “thank you.”
What You’ll Be Doing
- Sprucing up guest rooms and common areas — think dusting, vacuuming, mopping, and making sure everything looks and feels inviting
- Restocking linens, toiletries, and cleaning supplies (and reporting when anything’s running low)
- Reporting any maintenance issues or safety hazards you spot — your attention helps keep everyone secure
- Following daily checklists but also jumping in to tackle surprise messes with a positive attitude
- Sanitizing high-touch surfaces and keeping up with hygiene best practices
- Occasionally assisting team members with deep-cleaning projects or seasonal tasks
- Greeting guests or residents with a smile and helping them feel right at home
What You’ll Bring
- A strong work ethic and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team
- A keen eye for spotting what needs doing — whether it’s a cobweb in the corner or a towel that’s seen better days
- Dependability—you show up on time and take pride in finishing the job
- Physical stamina for bending, lifting, and moving throughout your shift
- Basic understanding of cleaning products and protocols, or a willingness to learn
Not sure you tick every box? We’d still love to hear from you.
