Bank - Flexible Shifts, Sickness and Annual Leave Cover

Could you help make every day a little better for our patients and their families? 

At our hospice, every role matters. From the care we provide to the environment we create, everything we do helps make people feel safe, comfortable and cared for. 

We are looking for reliable, enthusiastic and caring individuals to join our dedicated Housekeeping Team on a bank basis, providing essential cover during periods of staff sickness and annual leave. 

This is more than just a cleaning role. Our Housekeeping Team plays a vital part in creating a clean, safe and welcoming environment for patients, families, visitors and colleagues. It’s often the little things that make the biggest difference. 

What will you be doing? 

As part of our friendly Housekeeping Team, you will: 

  • Maintain high standards of cleanliness throughout the hospice. 
  • Help create a comfortable, welcoming and safe environment for patients and their families. 
  • Follow infection prevention and control procedures. 
  • Work collaboratively with colleagues across the hospice. 
  • Take pride in your work, knowing that what you do really matters. 

What are we looking for? 

We’re looking for people who are dependable, flexible and take pride in doing a job well. 

You’ll need to be someone who: 

  • Has a positive, caring and respectful approach. 
  • Takes responsibility and uses their initiative. 
  • Pays attention to detail and maintains high standards. 
  • Enjoys working as part of a supportive team. 
  • Understands the importance of dignity, privacy and confidentiality. 
  • Can offer flexibility to cover both planned annual leave and unplanned sickness absence, sometimes at short notice. 

Previous cleaning or housekeeping experience would be helpful, but a positive attitude and willingness to learn are equally important. 

Why join us? 

You’ll be joining a friendly and supportive team where your work is genuinely valued. 

As a bank member of staff, you’ll be offered shifts according to service needs and your availability, giving you the opportunity to work flexibly while making a meaningful contribution to hospice care. 

Because hospice care is about more than medicine. It’s about creating an environment where people feel comfortable, respected and cared for — and our Housekeeping Team helps make that happen every day. 

Interested in joining us? 

If you’re reliable, flexible and want to be part of a team where your contribution really makes a difference, we’d love to hear from you.
