• About the Job
• As part of our laundry team, you’ll provide a high-quality laundry service that supports our residents’ comfort, dignity and wellbeing.
• Your day-to-day duties will include collecting and sorting laundry, washing, drying and ironing items according to their care labels, and returning clean clothing and linen to residents’ rooms or the appropriate cupboards. You’ll make sure personal clothing is clearly labelled and, where time allows, carry out small repairs, such as replacing missing buttons.
• You’ll keep the laundry area and equipment clean and organised, replenish detergents and use supplies efficiently. Following your training, you’ll operate machinery and handle laundry products safely, reporting equipment faults, hazards or anything that could affect the service promptly.
• Throughout your work, you’ll treat residents and their belongings with care and respect, always knocking before entering their rooms. You’ll respond politely to requests, report any complaints to the Home Manager and work closely with colleagues to maintain our standards, following Colten Care’s policies and completing relevant training.
• About You
• You’re organised, dependable and have a keen eye for detail. You take pride in getting things right, understanding that a freshly pressed outfit or a carefully returned favourite jumper can make a real difference to someone’s day.
• With a friendly, approachable manner, you’re comfortable speaking with residents and working alongside colleagues. You can manage your workload, adapt to changing priorities and use your initiative while following instructions and safe working practices.
• Previous laundry or housekeeping experience would be helpful. Just as valuable are your willingness to learn, your practical approach and your commitment to providing a thoughtful, reliable service.
