Cleaning Team Leader
Here's a more generic, less identifiable version of the JD that keeps the core requirements but removes obvious Warner Bros. / NUServe / Watford clues. You can tweak the site name and client type as needed.

This is not a standard office‑style cleaning role - the environment is mixed indoor/outdoor, with live construction activity, changing layouts, and weather‑dependent work. You'll be responsible for managing a sizeable cleaning team, maintaining high hygiene and safety standards, and supporting the contract manager so they can focus on site expansion and client delivery. Key Responsibilities Lead and supervise a team of cleaning operatives across multiple operational zones, including washrooms, backstage areas, and public‑facing spaces. Plan and coordinate shift patterns, cover, and workload to ensure consistent standards during busy periods. Conduct daily inspections and quality checks, responding quickly to issues such as washroom failures or urgent clean‑downs. Ensure full compliance with health, safety, and environmental standards, including COSHH, PPE, and site‑specific rules. Manage stock, equipment, and storage areas for cleaning materials and tools. Work closely with site management, construction teams, and client representatives to keep operations running smoothly.
