Job Details

Laundry Assistant - Ionian Islands, Greece

We are looking for a Laundry Assistant to provide crucial support to our team during the season. This role will appeal to a strong, self-motivated, independent all-rounder with impeccable attention to detail and an interest in taking on a new challenge in a beautiful overseas environment

THE ROLE

The role is divided into 3 main areas of responsibility.

Soft Furnishings: you will be responsible for making sure that all soft furnishings in the club are kept clean at all times. This will involve daily walk-arounds of the club to ensure all cushions and covers are clean to a high standard. It will also involve a weekly schedule of areas in the club where cushion covers will need to be changed.

Staff Uniform: you will also be responsible for the care of certain staff uniform items, such a T-shirts and tank tops. This will involve laundering the items, drying them, and making sure that there are sufficient of each item available for staff to come and collect. You will also need to make sure that enough staff uniform is ready and organised for when you are not at work, to be handed out by a senior manager.

The Stores: You will also be expected to keep our stores clean and tidy. These are the Laundry, the General Store, and the Cleaning/Chemical Store. This is something done by everybody who uses the stores, including the cleaners and Activities Coordinator, but will also need a regular check to make sure that everything is stored correctly and safely.

In addition to this you will also be helping out in other areas of the club; whether it’s covering a bar staff lunch break, or helping to run food at lunch time.

It is also an extremely rewarding role for someone who thrives when given responsibility and gains satisfaction from a job well done.

It’s not all work and no play – in your spare time, as well as being able to explore the island and experience the local food and culture, you will have access to the club’s watersports facilities, allowing you to hone your existing skills or learn new ones in sailing and windsurfing.
