The Role Outline: Your Shift at a Glance

Your focus is to actively support and work alongside the Housekeeping Manager in the day-to-day running of the housekeeping department. This is a hands-on operational leadership role, combining floor-based supervision with planning, real-time work allocation, and shift control. You will lead from the front, conducting inspections, re-checking rooms, and directly coaching the team during service to deliver exceptional cleanliness, presentation, and guest experience standards.

At Village, we do hospitality a little differently. We are all about personality, genuine connections, and creating great experiences for our guests and each other. That is why we back our teams to be themselves, take ownership, learn new skills, and grow their careers.

Previous experience is great, but your attitude and energy matter much more to us. If you are friendly, positive, love working with people, and enjoy being part of a busy team, we will give you all the support, training, and opportunities you need. Because it really does take a Village.

We live our culture through four simple commitments:

• We Can & We Do: We show up to make a genuine difference and do fantastic work everyday, with purpose. We monitor the delivery of standards in real time and drive a "right first time" culture across the department.

• We Will: Treat each other with respect and dignity. No ego, no drama. We try our best, look out for each other, and step into operational gaps or clean rooms alongside our team when needed.

• We Care: We care about our impact on guests, the community, and each other. We build a positive team culture through on-the-floor coaching, recognition, active support, and continuous development.

As our Assistant Housekeeping Manager, you are leading on the floor. We trust you to handle:

• Visible Leadership: Conducting frequent inspections of guest rooms, corridors, and public areas, taking immediate corrective action to release top-quality spaces.

• Real-Time Operational Control: Monitoring room status based on arrivals, adjusting daily work allocation, and tracking productivity metrics like minutes per room.

• Commercial Support: Controlling operational costs by tracking linen usage, managing shift payroll hours, and keeping cleaning supplies fully stocked without waste.

• Service Recovery: Handling guest requests and complaints directly, ensuring swift, professional resolutions that protect our brand reputation.

• Compliance & Safety: Enforcing absolute compliance with health, safety, hygiene, and COSHH regulations, immediately correcting any unsafe practices.

We do not micromanage. It takes a village, so we believe in Ownership & Integrity, giving you the autonomy to deliver daily shift priorities, run team briefings, and coordinate directly with other departments.

We Empower & Elevate our people. If you want Room to Grow, we provide funded qualifications and internal moves to support your personal career progression. We constantly Innovate & Progress so we can Inspire Excellence, promote true pride in every task, and smash our guest satisfaction targets together.

• Gym Membership: 2 x complimentary gym memberships at your home hotel.

• Hotel Stays: Hotel rooms from £20 across 35 hotels.

• Food & Drink: 50% off food and drink for you and up to 5 guests, plus 75% off Sunday dinner for up to 6 people.

• Friends & Family: 2 friends or family members get 25% off F&B, even when you are not there.

• Retail & Lifestyle: Hundreds of brand discounts via the Village app.

• Support: 24/7 Mental Health support via our Employee Assistance Programme.

We are not looking for perfect CVs, we are looking for great leaders. If you enjoy building an engaged team, love a hands-on operational role, and take real pride in creating immaculate guest spaces, we want to hear from you.

Bring your personality, your drive, and your ambition. Hit apply, tell us why you love working with people, and let's see if we are a match.
