Housekeeper
We are looking for a reliable, enthusiastic and hardworking Housekeeper to join our small, friendly team at Hilltop Outdoor Centre.
As part of our housekeeping team, you will play an important role in ensuring that our accommodation and communal areas are clean, comfortable and welcoming for our customers and staff.
We are a family-run business that values the health and wellbeing of our employees. We pride ourselves on providing a supportive and positive working environment where everyone plays an important part in delivering a high-quality experience for our customers.
The role suits someone who takes pride in their work, has good attention to detail and enjoys working as part of a team. We work to high standards and need someone who can take a proactive approach and work efficiently, particularly when preparing the centre for our visiting groups.
Working Hours
Work is generally carried out on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays between 9.00am and 3.00pm. Some weekend working and flexibility around these hours will occasionally be required.
Hilltop primarily caters for schools during term time. We operate an annualised hours scheme, which provides greater flexibility around working hours during most school holidays. Our existing employees find this arrangement particularly useful.

- Work efficiently and proactively to complete cleaning duties within the time available.
What We Are Looking For
- A positive and hardworking attitude.
- Pride in maintaining high standards of cleanliness and presentation.
- Good attention to detail.
- Ability to manage time effectively and prioritise tasks.
- Ability to work independently while also being a supportive member of the team.
- Good physical stamina, as the role involves standing, bending, lifting and carrying as part of normal duties.
- Clear and friendly communication skills.
