We are seeking new Housekeeping Team members to carry out scheduled and responsive cleaning to provide a clean and safe environment for customers, staff and visiting companies. Lots of variety as you could be working in the Main House, the Kit or administration areas. In most cases five shifts per week of 5 hours between 0700-2300 hrs Monday to Sunday (although approx 20 shifts will start at 0600 hrs).
You will have a friendly and customer-focussed outlook with great interpersonal skills and an eye for detail. Some basic cleaning skills and an awareness of COSHH would be advantageous but full training will be given. You’ll be always on the go, working inside and out of the Theatre. If you love creating spotless mirrors, delivering shiny toilet bowls and picking up rubbish then this role is for you.
We want to work with people who are passionate about their work, resilient in the face of any challenge that comes their way and supportive of their colleagues.
