Job description
We are looking for a full time housekeeping person (5 days) working 8am till 2pm over 5 days including weekends and bank holidays. This can be made lenient to suit school hours if necessary during term times (9am-3pm). Due to location of hotel ideally you will have your own transport.
Housekeeping Responsibilities
Generally, room attendants have a set of general tasks that they are expected to complete as part of their job. Based on our review of job listings, these core tasks are:
Cleaning and Disinfecting Surfaces and Areas
After each guest vacates a room, all surfaces and areas must be properly cleaned and disinfected. This includes objects such as toilets, countertops, bathtubs, showers, and eating surfaces. Chambermaids must be knowledgeable in the proper use and safety of cleaning products.
Dusting and Polishing
Furniture and other woodwork in each room have to be dusted regularly. Additionally, applying furniture polish to certain items may be required. Light fixtures and ceiling fans also have to be dusted.
Sweeping, Vacuuming, and Mopping
Cleaning and caring for the floors is a core task of chambermaids. Depending on the floor surface, sweeping, vacuuming, or mopping may be needed. At times, carpets may need to be shampooed.
Organizing and Stocking
Hotels provide various items to their guests for convenience, such as soap, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, coffee and tea supplies, and stationery. Chambermaids know which items should be in each room and restock them as needed.
Changing Linens and Towels
Chambermaids remove soiled linens and towels from the room, replacing them with clean items. This requires putting clean sheets on all beds in the room and replacing bathroom towels with a sufficient type and quantity.
Waste Removal
Removing waste from wastebaskets and ashtrays and disposing of it properly is a core task of chambermaids. In some situations, the waste might be hazardous, which requires following Occupational Health and Safety rules and regulations for disposal.
