Yeldall Manor is a Christian recovery centre for men overcoming drug and alcohol addiction. We’re looking for a caring, motivated person to help maintain a clean, comfortable, homely environment while supporting residents as they rebuild their lives.

In this rewarding position, you will help ensure the cleanliness of our buildings while working alongside our male residents who are recovering from drug and alcohol addiction. Although you will sometimes carry out practical cleaning tasks yourself, a key part of your role is to support, motivate and guide residents as they take responsibility for the majority of the cleaning as part of life in community.

You will need strong interpersonal skills, a calm and encouraging approach, and the confidence to set and uphold consistent standards. As a CQC‑registered centre, excellent hygiene is essential, and we aim to maintain a warm, family‑style atmosphere where everyone feels valued and at home.

Yeldall Manor is a Christian organisation, and every member of staff plays a part in supporting residents on both their recovery and spiritual journeys. This role therefore has an occupational requirement that the successful candidate be a committed and practising Christian (in accordance with Schedule 9 of the Equality Act 2010).

Yeldall Manor is committed to safeguarding the welfare of its residents. The successful candidate will be subject to a satisfactory enhanced DBS check. We welcome candidates with lived experience but, if you are in recovery, you must have a minimum of two years’ clean time.

Hours and benefits:

• Permanent position
• 24 hours per week (some flexibility available within the standard working week)
• Lunch provided daily with the residents
• 25 days annual leave plus Bank Holidays (pro rata) rising to 30 days after three years' service
• Full details available in the job description
