Holiday Cottage Cleaner - Hereford
Summary
We’re looking for a Holiday Cottage Cleaner to prepare our popular holiday cottages near Hereford at The Weir Garden and other main National Trust properties in the area. You'll support staff holiday, deep cleans and busy times, when the team is stretched. Changeover days can be any day, however they are normally Mondays, Thursday and Fridays as well as some Saturdays. Due to the nature of this role, you'll need to hold a full driving licence.
Interview date: 26th August 2026
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 you'll be doing
On changeover days, you’ll make sure that everything’s pristine and ready for the next guests to arrive. This will include making sure the cottage is thoroughly cleaned, well-presented and welcoming. We’d also like you to keep an eye out for anything that’s not as it should be, and report any repairs or odd jobs that need doing. If you need to, you’ll also replace any broken items from the store supplies.
Full Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is provided for all teams, and extra measures are in place to protect staff.
