The Bishop's Quarter is a premium hospitality and property business in Bishop Auckland, operated by TBQ Management Ltd. We're hiring two experienced, detail-oriented housekeepers to help us keep our holiday lets, apartments, communal areas and commercial premises immaculate and guest-ready. This is not an entry-level cleaning job. We're looking for people who have worked in hospitality or professional housekeeping, who take genuine pride in their work and hold themselves to exceptionally high standards. If you notice the details others miss and take satisfaction in a space presented flawlessly, we'd like to hear from you. We're building a small, trusted team, and there's real scope to grow your hours and take ownership as we expand.
What you'll be doing:
- Cleaning, sanitising and turning around our holiday lets between guests, to a premium finish
- Stripping and remaking beds, and ironing and steaming bed linen and towels on-site so everything is crisp and impressive
- Taking fresh linen to properties and returning used linen to our central point for laundering
- Resetting each property to match our room guides and presentation standards, so every space is faultless
- Restocking consumables and setting out the welcome touches that make a stay feel special
- Keeping our offices and communal areas clean and presentable
- General housekeeping across the wider portfolio, which occasionally includes a private residence
- Carrying out periodic deep cleans and occasional one-off cleaning projects
- Completing maintenance and functionality checks, and reporting any issues promptly
- Watering outdoor pots and planters during the summer months
About you:
- Proven experience in hospitality or professional housekeeping
- Genuinely high standards and a keen eye for presentation and detail
- Honest, dependable, punctual and discreet, with respect for privacy and confidentiality
- Confident knowledge of appropriate cleaning products and equipment, and safe, careful use around quality furnishings and surfaces
- Physically fit and comfortable with the active, hands-on nature of the role
- Able to work independently, manage your time well and use your initiative
- Flexible around changeover days, which can include some weekends
- Able to provide contactable references from previous employers
- A full driving licence and your own transport are essential, as you'll move linen and supplies between our properties across Bishop Auckland.
What we offer:
- Permanent, employed (PAYE) role with a growing local business
- Genuine scope to increase your hours as we expand over the coming year
- On successful completion of a six-month probationary period, we plan to introduce additional benefits including dental cover and basic health insurance
- A small, respectful team where your work is valued and your standards are central to what we do
