UK Staffing Group are recruiting for a permanent Clearance & Cleaning Operative to join an established property restoration business.

This is a physical, hands-on role involving heavy lifting, clearing properties and cleaning. You need to be someone who is prepared to get stuck in, doesn't mind getting dirty and is comfortable lifting and moving furniture and other heavy household items throughout the day.

You'll travel as part of a team to homes and commercial properties that need clearing and cleaning following significant property damage.

This isn't a light cleaning role.

A large part of the job involves lifting, shifting and clearing. You could be removing furniture, carpets, household belongings and damaged materials, loading vans, disposing of items and then helping thoroughly clean the property.

Some items can be saved and will need carefully packing and transporting back to the company's unit for specialist cleaning and restoration.

It's varied, physical work and you'll be out at different locations rather than working in the same building every day.

• Clearing damaged properties
• Loading and unloading vans
• Removing and disposing of damaged items

• Have a full UK driving licence
• Are reliable and hardworking

• Enjoy being out and about
• Work well as part of a team
• Can behave professionally when working in customers' homes

Experience in removals, house clearance, labouring, waste, demolition, industrial cleaning, furniture delivery, warehouse or other physical roles would be ideal.
