Housekeeper - Selwyn Village
At Selwyn Village, home is at the heart of everything we do. We believe every older person deserves comfort, companionship, and a place where they truly belong. Our Housekeepers play a vital part in creating that sense of home.
If you have a warm spirit, take pride in your work, and enjoy supporting others, we would love to welcome you into our Selwyn whānau.
About the role
As a Housekeeper, you'll help create clean, calm, and uplifting spaces where our residents can thrive. This is meaningful work — every task you complete helps someone feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
Guided by The Selwyn Way — Spirituality, Growth, Contentment, Belonging, Resilience — you'll work closely with residents and our care teams to ensure each household feels like home.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Supporting households with daily cleaning to a high standard

- Removing rubbish and keeping shared spaces tidy
- Delivering household linen and residents' clothing
- Completing scheduled site‑wide cleaning tasks
- Maintaining safe infection‑control practices
- Using cleaning equipment safely and ensuring products are stored correctly
- Communicating warmly, respectfully, and professionally with residents and colleagues
Every interaction is an opportunity to uphold dignity, build connection, and enrich someone's day.
About you
You'll be someone who brings heart to your work as much as skill. You enjoy creating order, bringing shine to a space, and supporting others to live well.
We're looking for someone with:
- Housekeeping or cleaning experience (a Level 2 cleaning qualification is a bonus)
- A friendly communication style and a calm presence
- Strong attention to detail
- Eligibility to work in NZ permanently
- The ability to work both independently and as part of a supportive team
