The not so good bits…

Clearing up after a fun weekend- We all like to have fun, and this is certainly true for our residents. There may be a requirement for you to clear up common space that has been partied in over the weekend. This is not a great job, but you will be provided with full PPE to make sure we are keeping you safe.

Summer Turnaround- This is when our residents leave us, its the busiest time in our calendar and can involve clearing out residents room. Checking the contract cleaners are doing their jobs, and sometimes just helping out.
