Dayco Cleaning is looking for a reliable, proactive and hardworking Estate Caretaker to join our team at The Green Quarter, a large modern residential development in Southall, West London.
This is a permanent, hands-on role for someone who enjoys being active, working both independently and as part of a team, and takes genuine pride in keeping a residential development looking its best.
You will be part of a dedicated caretaking team responsible for the day-to-day presentation of the estate, working closely with Dayco's management team and the on-site property management team.
Working Hours
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday & Saturday
7:00am – 3:00pm
Wednesday & Sunday – Days Off
37.5 hours per week, with a 30-minute unpaid break each working day.
The Role
This is a varied role and you'll spend much of your day moving around the development, maintaining standards and dealing with issues as you find them.
Your duties will include:
- Carrying out regular estate rounds and litter picking
- Keeping pathways, entrances, car parks and external communal areas clean and presentable
- Cleaning bins, signage, communal fixtures and other external areas
- Removing cobwebs, leaves, dirt and debris throughout the development
- Cleaning and maintaining the estate's water feature
- Managing communal bin stores and keeping them clean and organised
- Moving, presenting and returning communal bins for scheduled collections
- Cleaning spillages and waste areas
- Checking estate bins and replacing liners where required
- Assisting with food waste collections
- Carrying out scheduled and periodic cleaning tasks
- Identifying and reporting defects, damage or maintenance issues during estate rounds
- Working alongside the other caretaker and supporting the wider site team
- Helping to maintain a consistently high standard for residents and visitors
The role is physical and active, involving considerable walking, outdoor work and the regular movement of communal waste bins.
