Holiday Cottage Cleaner required for Holy Island holiday cottages
The post is based at Lindisfarne Castle with the cottages located in the village. Holy Island is a 17 mile/30 minute drive from Wooler, 14 miles/25 minutes from Berwick upon Tweed and 12 miles/20 minutes drive from Belford.
Hours: 5 hours a week. The main changeover days are Mondays and Fridays, however, short breaks mean that changeover days can also fall on other days of the week, and you would have the opportunity to work additional hours at the cottages or, if you want to and are able to travel, in some of our other wonderful locations across the north east. We don’t work Sundays.
Rotas are issued in advance. You’ll need to be available between 10am and 3.00pm (there may be flexibility with the finish time) and free parking is available if you drive. We work around and within the tide times.
Duration: Permanent
Salary: £12.25
Interview date: Tuesday 29 July. Please make yourself available this day and we will contact you with an interview time if you are successful at getting to interview stage.
Immediate start available and full induction and training is given.
Internally within the National Trust, you will be known as a 'Holidays Operation Assistant'.
For this role, you’ll need to complete our online assessment instead of using a C.V. or online application form. This will help us understand more about your strengths and give you more information on the role.
What it's like to work here
We are looking for people who would like regular hours of work preparing our holiday cottages for our guests. Holidays in the north east continue to be very popular all year round and our cottages at Lindisfarne are two of our busiest, with high levels of occupancy and many returning guests. The cottages are set in a stunning location with amazing land and seascapes and history, and you’ll reap the benefits of working in gorgeous surroundings. We are a small team and are immensely proud of our cottages and the standard we provide for our guests. You will work independently and as part of a team.
