Facilities & Cleaning Assistant

As a Facilities & Cleaning Assistant you are the calling card of our venue and you help to make the stay of guests and visitors a pleasant one.

As a Facilities & Cleaning Assistant you make sure that our venue is always clean, tidy and welcoming. You carry out cleaning work according to the schedule and quality standards, maintain order and hygiene in and around the venue, and make sure that sports and games equipment is ready for hire and activities.

You are also the point of contact for our guests and visitors. You welcome, guide and inform them and you supervise the correct use of equipment, rooms and facilities. You also assist with light maintenance and repair work and help the technical officer with faults or maintenance. In addition, you work together with colleagues from the hospitality, front office, facilities and sports departments.

You manage cleaning materials and flag when stock needs replenishing. You also make sure that the venue is opened and closed safely in accordance with company procedures, and in the event of an emergency you act in line with the emergency and evacuation plan, in which you also carry out BHV (Dutch in-house emergency response) and first-aid duties.

Finally, you supervise interns within the Facilities department and in this way contribute to smooth, hospitable day-to-day operations.

You are an enthusiastic and reliable colleague who likes to roll up their sleeves. You have an eye for tidiness and order, work accurately and can function well both independently and as part of a team. You also consider hospitality important and feel responsible for a safe and well-kept environment. Flexibility, a practical attitude and a positive outlook make you the perfect addition to our team.

Our organisational competencies – innovative, flexibility, hospitality, attention and collaboration – come naturally to you. You apply them daily in your work and you are an example to your colleagues.
