Please note that this role will be primarily responsible for undertaking the heavy lifting and removal of student refuse (general, recycling and glass bottles) from the kitchens.

Most areas only have stair access, and the role requires high levels of manual handling.

Vacuum, spot clean and shampoo carpets, sweep and polish floors and clean stairs
Wash walls, doors, furniture, radiators, lampshades, and shower curtains, as appropriate

Make beds, including stripping and changing sheeting collection of laundered linen from store and bag and pack laundry for collection, during the conference season
Take down and rehang curtains, clean internal windows, where applicable
Move free standing furniture as required
Wash and clean glasses, cutlery, and cooking utensils, as appropriate
Act in accordance with all Health & Safety policies and practices
Daily contact with the residents, Residence Managers and associated UPP staff

We truly care about the experience of our residents and invite you to join our friendly team and help make a positive difference to students living away from home in our accommodation.

We are looking for you to already have experience of heavy-duty / deep cleaning in a similar environment and have great communication and organisation skills, along with an attention to detail and the passion to always do an excellent job.

You will need to have a good conversational standard of the English language and an ability to read and interpret our Health & Safety guidance.

You will also be flexible to work (with notice) additional hours when the need arises, especially during the main student arrival and departure weekends.

What we offer:

In return, we are offering a fun and interesting environment to work in with a competitive salary and a great benefits package which includes 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, life insurance, pension, cycle to work scheme, store discounts, as well as access to our UPP Rewards portal, offering discounts from a variety of retailers, restaurants gyms and more.

We also give two paid volunteering days each year to support a charity of your choice.

Our people are at the heart of how we operate and we welcome everyone who shares our values, regardless of background or identity.

Valuing our differences is what makes UPP a growing success and allows everyone to come to work feeling valued and supported.
