Housekeeper

This is a 3 month fixed term contract

Doing the right thing, even when nobody's watching? It's an iQ thing!

iQ is one of the UK's biggest providers of student accommodation, committed to giving our 37,000 students in 86 sites across 29 UK cities their best year yet.

Our site-based housekeeping teams are key players in the team and are positive individuals who love to make our sites look the best they can for our students!

Sound like your cup of tea? Here's a bit about the role . . .

Being a Housekeeper means making sure our buildings really feel like home for our students.

You will be responsible for cleaning communal areas such as cinema rooms, study areas and social spaces. Attention to detail and creating safe, tidy and clean spaces is a key part of this role.

No two days are ever the same, but you'll be part of an iQ family that will always have your back.

What makes a great iQer?

First and foremost, we're looking for a positive team player who thrives in a ‘get-stuff-done’ kind of environment. You won't mind rolling your sleeves up and will have a can-do attitude.

You'll have some cleaning or housekeeping experience but that could be in a hospitality or residential setting for example, however, we're much more interested in you and what you can bring to IQ.

Working hours

Our residents come first, so we work around their needs. Your shift pattern will be confirmed at least six weeks in advance and may vary across a six‑week cycle.

You’ll work within our operating hours of 8am–8pm, Monday to Friday, with occasional weekend work agreed in advance for busy periods or open days.

What you'll get

In exchange, you'll receive great benefits, and the opportunity to work as part of a fun, supportive team in a business that's definitely going places.

Working at iQ is so much more than a job, it's the chance to carve out your future and build a career in a truly diverse and fun environment.
