We are looking for a motivated and organised Housekeeping / Domestic Team Leader to support the delivery of high-quality cleanliness, housekeeping and patient meal service standards across Moseley Hall Hospital and West Heath Hospital.

Working closely with, and deputising for, the Band 5 Housekeeping Manager, you will help coordinate day-to-day domestic and housekeeping services, support staff allocation, monitor standards and provide practical leadership to ensure safe, clean and welcoming environments for patients, visitors and colleagues.

Joining our Housekeeping and Domestic Services team gives you the opportunity to make a real difference every day.
