Why Work as a Cleaner at Food Lovers Market?

Food Lovers Market is one of South Africa’s most popular supermarket chains. Cleaners play a big role in making sure stores and offices look fresh, tidy, and ready for customers and staff. When you join the team, you’ll be part of a friendly, supportive workplace with opportunities for personal and professional growth.

This is a permanent, full-time job, with shift work, so you’ll need to be available during different hours, including weekends or holidays.


What Will You Be Doing Each Day?

Your main job will be to keep all areas clean, organized, and presentable. Here’s what you’ll be doing as part of the cleaning team:

  • Sweep, mop, vacuum, and dust floors in all work areas and restrooms.

  • Help move dirty laundry or supplies between rooms or storage areas.
  • Assist other departments when needed, like during busy periods or store events.

  • Have a clear criminal record.
  • Experience as a cleaner or general worker is a strong advantage.

Bonus If You Have:

  • Previous cleaning experience (especially in retail or hospitality).
  • Are male, as some tasks may involve physical lifting (this is just a preference, not a requirement).
  • Aged between 18 and 65.
  • Part of EE/AA groups, as the company supports employment equity.

What Makes You a Great Fit?

To succeed in this job, you should have:

  • Good communication and listening skills.
  • A strong sense of responsibility and the ability to work without being watched.
  • A good eye for detail and high cleaning standards.
  • Ability to work well with others in a team.

What to Expect in the Application Process

Once you apply, you may be asked to:

  • Complete a Performance Assessment to check your job readiness.
  • Answer a few questions such as:
    • Where do you live?
    • Do you know how to use different cleaning tools and chemicals?
    • Can you complete tasks on your own?
    • What would you do if there’s a spill or safety hazard?
    • What steps would you take when cleaning floors?

These questions help the hiring team see if you’re ready and able to take on the role.
