DOT Service invites suitably qualified applicants to apply for their Valet / Cleaner Vacancies (number of posts not specified). The closing date for applications will be communicated by the employer.
This opportunity is based at an automotive workshop in Bloemfontein and is ideal for someone who enjoys working with vehicles, takes pride in cleanliness, and is not afraid of hands‑on work. If you like seeing results at the end of every day and enjoy being part of a practical team, this role could be a great fit.
DOT Service is looking for a reliable and detail‑focused Valet / Cleaner who can help keep vehicles and the workshop environment clean, organised, and professional at all times.
Why This Valet / Cleaner Role Is More Important Than You ThinkIn an automotive workshop, first impressions matter. When customers collect their vehicles, cleanliness plays a big role in how they feel about the service they received. A clean car shows care, effort, and professionalism.
As a Valet / Cleaner, you are a key part of the customer experience. Your work helps ensure that every vehicle leaving the workshop looks neat, smells fresh, and is ready to be handed back with confidence. This role also supports mechanics and workshop staff by keeping work areas clean and organised.
What You Will Be Doing on a Daily Basis Cleaning and Preparing VehiclesYour main responsibility will be washing and vacuuming vehicles. This includes cleaning the exterior, interior, windows, and ensuring that no dirt or dust is left behind. Vehicles must be clean and presentable before they are returned to customers.
Attention to detail is very important. Customers notice the small things, such as clean mats, dust‑free dashboards, and streak‑free windows.
From time to time, you will be required to move vehicles in and out of the workshop. This could be to make space for repairs, prepare a vehicle for delivery, or assist workshop staff with vehicle flow.
Because of this, a valid driver’s licence is essential. You must be confident driving different vehicles and able to follow instructions carefully to avoid damage or accidents.
Keeping the Wash Bay and Work Areas CleanA clean work environment helps everyone do their job better. You will be responsible for maintaining cleanliness in the wash bay and surrounding areas. This includes keeping floors tidy, removing waste, and making sure cleaning tools are stored properly.
A well‑kept wash bay also improves safety by reducing slips, clutter, and unnecessary hazards.
Assisting With General Workshop DutiesThis role is not limited to vehicle cleaning only. You may be asked to assist with general workshop duties when needed. This could include simple tasks that help mechanics and other staff keep the workshop running smoothly.
Being helpful, flexible, and willing to learn will go a long way in this position.
Experience and Qualifications NeededTo be considered for this Valet / Cleaner role, the employer is looking for candidates who meet the following requirements:
- Previous experience in vehicle washing or valet work
- A valid driver’s licence
- Strong attention to detail
- A good work ethic and willingness to work hard
- Ability to work well as part of a team
- Reliable and punctual
While formal qualifications are not required, experience and the right attitude are very important.
Personal Qualities That Will Help You Succeed Pride in Your WorkThis job suits someone who takes pride in doing things properly. Vehicles must be cleaned thoroughly, not rushed. If you enjoy seeing clean results and satisfied customers, this role will suit you well.
Workshops rely on teamwork. You will be working closely with other staff, so being respectful, cooperative, and dependable is essential. Arriving on time and completing tasks without constant supervision shows professionalism.
Physical ReadinessVehicle cleaning and workshop duties can be physically demanding. You will be on your feet for most of the day and may need to move around frequently. Being physically able and comfortable with active work is important for this role.
