Qualifications:

  • Strong attention to detail with ability to identify areas that require cleaning or maintenance.
  • Reliable attendance and punctuality are crucial for maintaining a consistent cleaning schedule.
  • Ability to work independently, take initiative and efficiently manage time to complete tasks within assigned schedules.
  • Capability to perform physical tasks such as lifting, bending, and standing for extended periods.
  • Ability to communicate effectively with team members and management.
