ABOUT THE ROLE

As a Laundry Assistant you’ll be responsible for providing a laundry service for our residents; this includes the operation of commercial washing, drying and finishing machinery. You’ll ensure the laundry area is safe, clean and tidy at all times and that all laundry is processed in an efficient and timely manner.

Some of our residents love to join in with simple laundry tasks, so you may sometimes find that you have extra help as you carry out your daily routines.

• Higher weekend pay

• Workplace pension
• Free uniform

• Refer a Friend scheme rewarding you up to £1000 for every recommendation you make who successfully starts working for us
• Access to our Employee Assistance programme
• Care Worker Charity membership for well being and financial aid
• Blue Light Card and “My Rewards” programme, offering you discounts on shopping, days out, restaurants and much more.

We reserve the right to close this role before the closing date, with no advance notice. We do encourage you to complete an application as soon as possible if interested.
