Operations

Essential Function – Job Summary

You will be responsible for cleaning, preparing, and caring for a unique historic building that is let for short
holidays.  Changeover days are normally Mondays and Fridays, unless it is a Bank Holiday, and work is to be
undertaken between 10.00 and 16.00.  Your contract will show the number of hours the work is likely to take at
your particular building.

Relationships

The Property Steward reports to the Property Manager for the cluster.

Key Accountabilities

You will ensure the property is thoroughly cleaned and fully prepared for guest arrivals. With a keen eye for
detail, you’ll check that the property is stocked with the correct inventory and promptly report any
maintenance issues to the Property Manager. You’ll be responsible for managing the supply and quality of linen
and other property essentials, as well as carrying out routine fire safety and water temperature checks (training
will be provided). You will be a point of contact in advance of and during your guests' stay. Guests will also have
contact details for the Booking Office, Property Manager, and our Out of Hours support line. You will care for
the property as if it were your own to ensure that our guests have the best possible experience. Regular
communication with the Property Manager will be essential to maintaining quality and addressing any
maintenance issues quickly and effectively

Skills

General cleaning and experience in physical, practical tasks is an advantage; however, attention to detail and
commitment to customer care are essential in this role.  You will be self-motivated, with an enthusiastic attitude
and willingness to work in an historic building.

Previous experience as a cleaner would be an advantage not essential. This is a physical role, and a reasonable level
of fitness and strength will be required.

Training

Training will be provided in a range of areas both for your and our guest's safety. You will have a Landmark Trust
email address and access to the internet is essential to carry out this training.  You will receive regular emailed
updates and communication relevant to their role.

Education
