Why work here

The basics, done properly.

We don't dress this up. The cleaning industry has a reputation for treating people poorly — that's the standard we set ourselves against, and these are the eight things we get right.

01

Real Living Wage

Above minimum wage on every contract — that's a promise we've kept since 2014.

02

Directly employed

No zero-hour contracts. No agencies. You work for us, on a proper contract, paid weekly.

03

Paid training

Onboarding, on-the-job training, and recognised qualifications — paid for, and paid for your time.

04

Uniform & kit included

Branded uniform, all products, all equipment. You don't spend a penny to do the job well.

05

Predictable rotas

Set hours, set sites, set days. Your shifts don't change week to week without notice.

06

Holiday & pension

Statutory holiday pay and a workplace pension — same as you'd get at any proper employer.

07

Refer-a-friend bonus

If you bring someone good in and they stay, we say thanks with a cash bonus.

08

Room to grow

Most of our supervisors and account managers started on sites. There's a clear path up.

From the team

What it's actually like.

“I've been with Clean Bees for six years. Same team, same site, fair pay every week. They actually listen when something needs sorting.”

Maria
Cleaning Operative · 6 years

“Started as an evening cleaner. Two years in I was supervising a small team. Three years on, I run accounts. They genuinely promote from within.”

James
Account Manager · 5 years

“It's the first cleaning job I've had where the rota doesn't change every week. I can plan my life. Sounds small but it isn't.”
