Plas Bryn Extra Care Scheme, Cardiff, CF5 3RW
The opportunity:
Washing, wiping, mopping, scrubbing, brushing, sweeping and shining – you’ll be doing all of this and more to keep our extra care scheme squeaky clean for our residents. The Domestic Team play a huge role, as they ensure that bedrooms, bathrooms and communal areas are kept clean and tidy for our tenants.
If you like keeping busy and have an eye for detail, this is the role for you! We’ll give you the key to our cupboard full of cleaning tricks – plus all the training you need, so you know what products to use, where and when.

- Health and Safety awareness – we offer full training to make sure you know the risks, hazards and saftest way to work, but a basic understanding of health and safety in this role or willingness to learn is needed – getting the job done safely is key.
- Team player – you’ll be working in a busy team so you should be able to work alongside others well, but also use your own initiative to work alone when required too.
- Great customer service skills – as well communication skills, you should be able to provide excellent customer service. Our tenants are our customer, so we are looking for someone who can go above and beyond to provide excellent customer service.
What we will offer in return:
- Free DBS
- Free Uniform
- Free on-site parking
- 5.6 weeks annual leave (pro-rata)
