General Cleaner - Hebden Bridge

Summary

Join our great team!

As a General Cleaner at Hardcastle Crags, you'll go out of your way for others and you’ll help to make our property an extra special place to visit. You’ll turn your practical hand to all sorts of cleaning, ensuring all our facilities are kept in good working order. You’ll ensure the highest standards of customer service across the property by always implementing a ‘customer comes first’ attitude.

There are 2 roles available: 8-11am Saturdays, and 8-11am Sundays. We are hoping to recruit 2 new members of staff, each with a minimum guaranteed 3 hours per week. If you are interested in both Saturdays and Sundays, then we will be happy to consider this. It is likely that more hours will be offered on top of this at other times throughout the year, including during our busy wedding season in the summer, and for longer deep cleaning day (which could be mid-week when we have less visitors).

If you have any questions about the role, then please contact: chris.bryerley@nationaltrust.org
