Overview
Holmesdale Homes is looking for a reliable, hardworking and detail-focused Housekeeper / Property Operations Assistant to help look after our serviced accommodation properties in Northampton and Kettering.
This is more than a standard cleaning position.
You’ll be responsible for making sure our properties are completely clean, presented and guest-ready before each arrival.

- Reporting maintenance issues
- Reporting damage or missing items
- Checking stock and linen levels
- Carrying out occasional deep cleans
- Helping maintain consistently high standards across our properties
Working hours
Our serviced accommodation properties operate 7 days a week, so flexibility is important.
Monday and Friday are often our busiest changeover days and availability on these days is particularly important.
There will also be some weekend work depending on guest check-outs.
The role will initially provide approximately 16+ hours per week, with the opportunity for additional hours as required and as the business grows.
What we’re looking for
- Extremely reliable and punctual
- Excellent attention to detail
- Takes pride in their work

Full training will be provided on the Holmesdale Homes cleaning and guest-ready standards.
Opportunity to grow
Holmesdale Homes is a growing serviced accommodation and property management business.
For the right person, there is potential for the hours and responsibilities to increase as the business grows, including the opportunity to take greater responsibility for housekeeping and property standards across our portfolio.
If you’re reliable, take pride in doing things properly and would like to become an important part of a growing property business, we’d love to hear from you.
Pay: £14.00 per hour
