WE ARE OUTSTANDING, YOU CAN BE TOO.

We are looking for a confident and diligent Housekeeping Supervisor to join our small and friendly Domestic team here at Portland Charity. We are looking for someone who has a strong commitment to high quality and standards, and a strong knowledge of cleaning standards; health and safety; and infection control.
The successful candidate will be based at the main Portland College Campus; however, they will also be required to travel to our other Portland Charity sites across Nottinghamshire to carry out quality and stock checks and report any actions required. Due to the travel required, it is essential that the successful candidate has access to their own transport and is wiling to travel across our multiple sites – mileage costs will be reimbursed.
Whilst on the Main Campus, the Housekeeping Supervisor will work closely with the team, carrying out cleaning duties across the college and ensuring a high level of hygiene and cleanliness across the campus. This role will involve working with COSHH substances and manual handling. In addition, we are seeking someone who has a strong knowledge of Legionella and can take a lead role in Legionella prevention, making sure that the team are trained and following relevant policies and procedures throughout the day.
This role has line management responsibilities, including being a first point of call for the team; conducting supervisions and performance reviews; managing absence and rotas; and supporting the coordination of training for staff. It is imperative, therefore, that the successful candidate is a strong communicator and works confidently and effectively within a team.
A day in role may include checking in on the team, dealing with absences, checking email communications for tasks that require immediate action, and collaborating with the team across the college to ensure high standards of cleanliness in line with relevant legislation. During your working day, you will come into contact with Portland Charity staff, learners and citizens, therefore it is important that you have a friendly and professional approach.
If you feel that you have the right skills and attributes for this role, and you would like to join a vibrant and thriving team, we look forward to hearing from you.
