We're looking for a Holiday Cottage Cleaner to prepare our holiday cottages at Polesden Lacey. You'll be part of an existing team, helping to maintain four holiday cottages.

As a member of our team, you'll have access to a range of benefits, including a substantial pension scheme, free entry to National Trust places, and a rental deposit loan scheme.

We'd also like you to keep an eye out and report any repairs or odd jobs that need doing along with replacing any broken items from the store supplies.

Full Personal Protective Equipment(PPE) is provided for all teams and additional extensive measures in place to protect staff.

You can view the full role profile for this role in the document attached. You don't need to have all of the knowledge, skills and experience listed in the role profile; this is just to provide a full picture of what's possible in this role.
