Housekeeping Team Member

Hopetown Darlington opens its doors this summer as the region's most exciting and newest visitor attraction. This ambitious project extends across a 7.5-acre site and will encompass a wagon themed play park, an immersive time travel experience ride, and will even include a gallery to watch live engineering in action. In addition, visitors can enjoy touring exhibitions, a reimagined state of the art museum and entertaining festivals and events for the whole family. A spacious café and shop are also part of this incredible site which is steeped in Darlington's rail heritage and will offer a family day out like no other. The venue will attract upwards of 300,000 visits annually, of which up to 100,000 are expected to be from outside the region. Hopetown Darlington is seeking inspired and driven individuals who can bring personality, energy and enthusiasm to the team. As part of the Housekeeping Team, you will take pride in keeping Hopetown Darlington a clean and well maintained venue. Flexibility to working hours and duties is essential, along with a positive and enthusiastic approach. You must have the ability to clean to a high standard, follow instruction and have confidence in all you do. This is a front facing role and you may be required on occasion to assist visitors where needed.
