Lewes Town Council is looking for a reliable, motivated Cleaner to help care for our three community venues: All Saints Centre, Malling Community Centre and Lewes Town Hall. These buildings are busy public spaces used for performances, community events, meetings and civic functions — and some are Grade II listed, requiring careful and respectful cleaning.
We’re looking for someone who:
Takes pride in maintaining clean, safe and welcoming spaces
Can follow instructions and work to an agreed schedule
Is comfortable working independently across multiple venues
Can use basic email and follow simple digital instructions
Works well with colleagues and is polite and professional with the public
Has previous cleaning experience and understands what high standards look like
In this role, you’ll carry out day to day cleaning, support opening and locking up when required, and help ensure our venues remain safe, tidy and ready for community use. You’ll be part of a small, friendly team but will often work alone, so reliability and a positive attitude are essential.
If you’re hands on, organised, and want to contribute to the smooth running of valued community buildings, we’d love to hear from you.
Please submit your CV including your written answers to the three screening questions below:
Most tasks in this role are completed independently, but teamwork is still important. What helps you stay motivated when working alone, and how do you contribute positively to a team?
Some of our buildings are listed or of historic importance. What do you think is important when cleaning and caring for older or historic buildings?
Do you have basic computer skills to follow cleaning schedules and instructions carefully?
Applications must be received by 5pm on Thursday, 07 May 2026.
We may close the advert early if we receive a high number of applications, so we encourage early submission.
Interviews will take place in May 2026.
