Job Description

Our client is a reputable and thriving hotel organization known for delivering exceptional hospitality experiences to guests from all over the world. As a prominent player in the hotel industry, the company prides itself on maintaining high standards of cleanliness, comfort, and customer service throughout its premises. This hotel operates in a highly dynamic environment with a commitment to excellence and guest satisfaction, driven by a dedicated team of professionals passionate about making every stay memorable. With a focus on adhering to brand standards and company policies, the hotel continuously invests in training and resources to support its staff, ensuring a safe, clean, and inviting environment for both guests and employees alike.

The Public Space Cleaner role is a vital position within the housekeeping and maintenance team, responsible for maintaining the overall cleanliness of the hotel's public areas. This role plays a key part in upholding the establishment's reputation by ensuring all public spaces—including floors, elevators, lobbies, hallways, vending areas, stairwells, service areas, and workout facilities—are kept spotless and inviting. The Public Space Cleaner uses specialized cleaning equipment and chemicals to polish floors and windows, vacuum carpets, remove gum spots, and eliminate litter and dust. In addition, this position supports the housekeeping staff by assisting with room servicing tasks such as trash removal, bed stripping, and handling laundry. The role demands attention to detail, physical stamina, and a commitment to following operational procedures related to safety, equipment maintenance, and chemical use.

Working primarily indoors, candidates for this role should expect to perform physically demanding tasks such as lifting weights up to 50 pounds, standing for extended periods, bending, kneeling, squatting, crouching, and tolerance to exposure from dust and cleaning chemicals. The position requires availability to work any shift, including weekends and holidays, to meet the hotel’s operational needs. Outstanding customer service and communication skills are essential, as this role often interacts with guests and fellow employees. This employment opportunity is an excellent entry point or continuing career option for individuals passionate about maintaining impressive hotel environments and delivering excellent hospitality standards. Our client offers a supportive work culture and equal opportunity employment, valuing diversity and inclusion across its workforce.
