Job description

Who are we? The Cleaning Department is a large team providing cleaning to all areas of the hospital. Cleaners are generally assigned to specific location, enabling them to feel part of the local area team as well and build great relationships. Cleaning is a vital service within the hospital, helping to control the spread of infection, and providing a welcoming and safe environment for all our patients, staff and visitors.

The role requires you to have a current right to work in the UK, which enables you to undertake the role without need of sponsorship. Under current UK immigration rules this role is not eligible for sponsorship and it is not possible for the Trust to sponsor applicants for a visa for this role.

Accordingly, we regret that any application will not be considered if this requirement is not met.

The hours we are looking to fill are afternoon shifts (11.30 - 19.30 or 14.00 - 22.00) or weekend shifts (7.30 - 3.30 or 11.30 - 19.30). Part-time roles are also available.
