Wild coastlines, big skies and a close-knit island community set the rhythm of daily life on Islay. The roll of waves, breeze-blown dune grasses, and call of seabirds make up a rich island soundtrack. Originating from the Gaelic term ‘machair’, Machrie offers elevated comforts and unforgettable experiences.  

Our Housekeeping Supervisor role:

Housekeeping is at the heart of our guest experience at The Machrie. Together, our team ensures that every bedroom, suite, lodge and shared space is immaculately prepared, clean, and inviting, so that our guests feel at home from the moment they arrive.

  • Leading by example by promoting company standards, policies and procedures while fostering a positive culture of teamwork, accountability and professionalism.
  • Training, coaching and supporting team members and helping new starters settle in, enabling team to perform at their best.
  • Championing health, safety and compliance by completing daily checks, following key control procedures, maintaining Risk Proof records and ensuring the team understands all relevant regulations and emergency procedures.

  • Confidence in supporting and guiding colleagues, including task delegation
  • A genuine care for colleagues, guests and the environment around you
