ABOUT THE ROLE
You'll own how our turnover days run. You'll be first into each property as guests check out, so issues are caught early and the team can focus on cleaning, and you'll be the one who signs every home off as guest-ready. Hands-on role, reporting to the Operations Manager.

- Midday: jump in to clean wherever you're needed most, keeping the team to time
- Afternoon: quality checks, final inspections and pre-arrival videos before check-in
