Do you take pride in your cleaning standards and attention to detail? As Head Housekeeper, you’ll ensure that our home is clean and welcoming for the people who live and work here.

This is an exciting opportunity to use your skills to make a real difference every day. Join us as our Head Housekeeper at Lonnen Grove learning disability service in Rotherham.

Our Head Housekeeper plays a key role in leading all the daily and weekly cleaning routines of their Housekeeping Team. No two days will ever be the same, but your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

You’ll put our people at the heart of everything you do – whether that’s hoovering our residents’ bedrooms or polishing their photo frames. We can guarantee that whatever you bring to the role, you’ll see great rewards.

If you haven’t worked in the care sector before, we’ll help you feel right at home from the start with our induction, buddy, and ongoing training programmes.

You’re also:

You don’t need any specific qualifications to apply for this role, but a good standard of education, such as GCSEs in English and Maths, may be useful. You’ll ideally also have supervisory experience in a similar role.

We offer great rewards and perks including:

• regular supervision, peer support, learning opportunities and career prospects
• access to wages before payday
• retail and lifestyle discounts
• free DBS check
• 24/7 counselling and support
