Make a difference as a Housekeeping Assistant 

Our Housekeeping Assistants are the behind-the-scenes heroes who work together to create a home away from home for our guests.

Housekeeping Assistants leave sparkle wherever they go, leaving a trail of spotless bathrooms, gleaming windows, fresh sheets and vacuumed carpets in their wake. They love to keep our centres looking their very best. It’s busy, physical work, but it’s never boring!

We hire the best talent and value a diverse, inclusive team; so, we are dedicated to ensuring our application process is accessible to everyone and are happy to provide helpful adjustments to make it easier to complete. Simply email or call us with detail around the adjustments you need. However, our top priority is the safety of the guests on our centres. Therefore, all centre based employees and some specific Head Office employees must undergo an Enhanced criminal record check (known as DBS or PVG), which we pay for. You will need to provide a 5-year address history and ID (such as passport/birth certificate). Convictions related to violence, drugs, or safeguarding may affect your application. Not all convictions will disqualify you, as we assess each case individually.
