The opportunity

Our halls are more than just a place to stay; they are a place to call home. We want our students to have the best living experience possible and pride ourselves in providing a first class customer orientated service in the provision of safe, secure and affordable accommodation.

London is a city that never stops and neither do our Halls of Residence! Due to an increase in resident needs outside of the traditional ‘9-5’, we are expanding our service to reflect a true 24/7 operation and we are expanding our team to help manage the service round the clock with Residence Housekeeping Assistants complementing the services we already deliver to our students.

As a Residence Housekeeping Assistant you will deliver a daily cleaning service to all public areas of the residential accommodation, including bathrooms, lavatories, common rooms, offices, laundry and kitchenettes. You will be extremely customer focused and you may be the first point of contact for many different enquires and support.

Based at our Camberwell Campus & Brooke Hall in South East London, Residence Housekeeping Assistants will be expected to work 8am – 4pm Monday to Friday providing cover over 365 days a year including public holiday periods. You may from time to time be expected to travel to other sites across London to provide support and assistance to other staff members & residents alike.
