We are looking for an experienced and proactive Cleaning Manager to oversee our cleaning operations across multiple commercial and residential sites in London and surrounding areas. The successful candidate will take full responsibility for managing cleaning teams, ensuring high standards of cleanliness, health & safety compliance, and customer satisfaction.
