We are a 55 bedroom Hotel under going the final stages of a multi million renovation programme, with busy food and beverage, conference and events departments

.Without you as head housekeeper, the hotel would rapidly come to a sticky end - literally. Your primary role is to supervise, train and work alongside your staff to ensure all hotel rooms are sparklingly clean and in tip-top condition. But your expert knowledge will also be in demand with other departments. For instance, you’ll be expected to liaise with the general manager and heads of department, attending regular meetings. And if the hotel is undergoing renovations, you could also find yourself consulting with architects, interior designers and other specialists. Last but not least, if you want a motivated team, you’re going to have to find time to meet with them at least once a week, too. Key responsibilities:

- Dealing with suppliers of linen, cleaning materials and guest supplies, such as soap, shampoo, etc.
- Controlling supply costs, as well as laundry, maintenance and wages
- Scheduling staff rotas
- Overseeing stocktakes, budgets and other paperwork, such as maintenance reports and safety audits
- Ensuring lost property is kept safely and returned to its owner
- Possibly overseeing supervisors and linen room and cleaning supplies staff
- An awareness of green issues
