Housekeeper
The closing date is 12 October 2025
Job summary
Can you imagine being a vital part of a team? Now of course, all wards are special for their own reasons, however we'd be lying if we said we didn't think that the maternity ward was an extra special environment, and you can be part of it!
You will provide non-clinical support to the unit team carrying out tasks in order to facilitate an efficient Patient service.
The essence of the role is to assist in maintaining a safe and clean working environment for patients and staff, and to ensure that stocks and supplies are kept at adequate levels within the clinical environment.
You will have autonomy in the ordering of stores, the reporting of faults and the initiation of works as required ensuring safe and smooth running of the Unit. You will attend necessary meetings, feeding back relevant information, action within own scope and share responsibilities with senior staff to enable them to delegate to the appropriate person.
Please Note: This role does not qualify for international sponsorship.
