Housekeeping Operative

The key purpose of this role is to assist the Housekeeping team with maintaining a high standard of service at the Club's new state-of-the-art Training Ground, assuring the highest degree of cleaning and customer care is delivered at all times.

The ideal candidate will demonstrate courtesy, confidentiality, and respect at all times, and be able to operate with a high degree of safety and attention to detail. Whilst previous experience within a housekeeping or cleaning role is desirable, it is not essential; if you are enthusiastic and flexible, this role may be perfect for you.

If applying for this role, you should take pride in the work that you carry out, maintaining an organised and calm approach to tasks, despite being subject to stringent deadlines and working within a fast-paced and dynamic environment. This role also requires flexibility, as Housekeeping support is needed for events and matchdays, meaning working on a rota that includes evenings and weekends.

Due to the nature of the role and location of the Club's Training Ground, it is essential that candidates have their own means of transport, as public transport links to / near the facility are very limited.

Knowing some of the history of Leicester City Football Club helps you appreciate the sense of community, spirit and family for which the Foxes are renowned for.

Formed in 1884, the Club was promoted to the Premier League in 2014 when the Foxes returned to the top tier as the Championship title-winners. In 2016, Leicester City became Premier League champions. This remarkable achievement qualified us for the UEFA Champions League for the first time in the Club's history, and we subsequently reached the quarterfinals.

The Club continued to build on that success and celebrated lifting the prestigious FA Cup in May 2021. Following relegation from the Premier League in 2023, the Club made it the top priority to get straight back up and did so as Championship title-winners in the 2023-2024 season.

Under the stewardship of King Power and the Club's CEO Susan Whelan, Leicester City Football Club is deeply committed to the local community and its supporters and continually strives to ensure that every point of engagement with fans is truly world class including the experience on matchdays. Investment in the Club continues, with the 2021 opening of a new state-of-the-art training ground in North Leicestershire.

Leicester City Football Club offers a competitive salary and pension scheme with life assurance to all its permanent employees. Employees are able to benefit from free onsite parking as well as an onsite subsidised staff restaurant. Employees also benefit from up to 33 days' annual leave including bank holidays.
