We specialise in immediate starts. Once your application is reviewed and you pass our quick registration and right-to-work checks, we can often place you with a client within 1-3 days, depending on your availability and the specific role's requirements.
Do I need previous professional cleaning experience?
While experience is preferred for many roles, a strong work ethic, reliability, and attention to detail are paramount. We provide basic guidance, and some clients offer on-the-job training. For candidates new to the sector, we can often place you in less complex environments to build your experience.

Shift patterns are highly varied to suit different client needs and lifestyles. Common patterns include early mornings (5 AM - 9 AM), evenings (6 PM - 10 PM), daytime office hours, and weekend shifts. We discuss your availability during registration to match you with suitable roles.

All Workers-Direct temporary staff are paid weekly. You will submit timesheets, which we verify with the client, and payment is then made directly into your bank account. We ensure prompt and accurate payment every week.
Will I need any special equipment or uniform?
The client typically provides all necessary cleaning equipment, chemicals, and, in many cases, a uniform or branded clothing. You will usually only need to provide suitable, comfortable footwear for the role. Your consultant will confirm the specific requirements for each assignment.
Can temporary cleaning work lead to a permanent job?
Absolutely. Many of our clients use temporary placements as an extended interview. Demonstrating reliability, a strong work ethic, and fitting into the team can often lead to an offer of a permanent contract. We actively facilitate these temp-to-perm transitions.
