Contracted hours: 27 hours per week, Monday to Friday with alternate weekend working


ABOUT THE ROLE

Are you an experienced housekeeper with high standards of cleanliness and attention to detail?

Can you lead a small team to deliver exceptional housekeeping and laundry services for our residents, while motivating them to excel?

Located in the heart of the Cotswolds in Cirencester, Paternoster House offers compassionate nursing, residential, and respite care for 40 residents.

The Head Housekeeper plays a crucial role in maintaining top cleanliness standards. Leading a team of Housekeepers and Laundry Assistants, you’ll ensure every room and space is clean, tidy, and well-maintained. As a hygiene and infection control champion, you’ll have access to specialized equipment and materials to create a welcoming, safe, and comfortable environment for residents, visitors, and staff.

Joining us means becoming part of our extended family. You’ll work with passionate team members committed to providing a safe, warm, and caring environment.


AND IN RETURN

The Trust has been providing care for nearly a century and is the second-largest not-for-profit provider in the UK. We reinvest all profits into our residents, staff, and care homes. We offer numerous benefits, including a competitive salary, training, and development opportunities.

Additional benefits include:

* 28 days holiday (including Bank Holidays)
* Higher pay rates at weekends
* Free uniform
* Free DBS check
* Access to our Employee Assistance Programme
* Refer a Friend scheme with rewards for successful referrals
* Blue Light Card and “My Rewards” discounts on shopping, outings, restaurants, and more


ABOUT YOU

You will have experience with contract cleaning in industrial, commercial, or domestic settings and be comfortable in an elderly care environment, with the ability to relate compassionately to residents. Supervisory experience, such as organizing rotas, delegating tasks, and training staff, is a plus but not essential. You may also have or be working towards a QCF Level 3 in Multi-skilled Hospitality Services (or equivalent), along with knowledge of the Health and Safety at Work Act, COSHH Regulations, and Infection Control—though these are not mandatory.

What matters most is you being a positive role model with excellent communication skills, a caring nature, and the ability to motivate others to deliver the best service. You should be confident in taking charge, using your initiative to solve problems, and handling queries effectively.
