Can you enrich the lives of young people as a Domestic Assistant?
We are looking for responsible, caring Domestic Assistant to join our fantastic team at Upton Grange, Slough. As Domestic Assistant you will help support our children and young people in their daily lives, ensuring our facilities are well prepared to keep them, comfortable and healthy.
This is a great opportunity to work as part of a team committed to helping children with varied and complex needs.
Our Domestic Assistants carry out an essential role to maintain the standards of cleanliness required by the children and young people in our care. You will take pride in ensuring domestic duties including vacuuming, mopping, rubbish removal, dusting and cleaning are carried out to the highest standards.
Quality is always top of our agenda and we pride ourselves on the quality of what we do. We are looking for a Domestic Assistant who shares our vision to build incredible futures by empowering vulnerable young people in the UK, to be happy and to make their way in the world.

These roles are ideal for people working in customer facing industries including retail, hospitality, and leisure, looking for a new role that makes a real difference to children’s lives and futures.
You will be quality focused, efficient, able to work at pace, and motivated to help us provide a safe, caring environment where every child can thrive.
