Contract Type: Permanent

The York Dungeon are currently on the lookout for a Weekend Custodian / Cleaner. The Displays and Cleaning team are a vital ingredient in the guest experience and so we’re looking for someone who strives for the best and isn't afraid to get stuck in!

What you'll be doing...

You will be responsible for ensuring that the attraction is litter free, clean, hygienic and presentable for our guests.

  • In addition to all attraction spaces, you'll also be responsible for cleaning staff areas and toilet facilities - as well as carrying out costume laundry to keep our Dungeon Dwellers looking their best!

  • We're looking for someone who works to a high standard with great attention to detail - able to work independently and use their initiative!

Qualifications & Experience
