- Attend properties when necessary to assess cleaning requirements and prepare accurate quotations.
- Coordinate property access, including collecting and returning keys when required.

Emergency Operational Support

This is primarily an office administration and management position, not a routine cleaning role.

However, the successful candidate must possess practical professional cleaning skills and be willing to provide occasional hands-on assistance in exceptional circumstances, such as unforeseen staff injuries, urgent staffing shortages or operational emergencies.

The Office Manager will prioritise staff coordination and alternative arrangements before providing hands-on assistance.
