Your Birmingham jobs questions
What are the eligibility requirements?
Applicants need to be 18 or over with the right to undertake self-employed work in the UK. That includes British and Irish citizens and other people whose immigration status allows self-employment. We verify eligibility before you begin any cleaning work, which is all self-employed.
Can I fit a cleaning round around my availability?
State your preferred hours and travel area on the application. Most visits last 2 to 6 hours on a weekly or fortnightly basis. As your cleaning round grows, you must keep the agreed regular schedule for each client you accept. Suitable work builds over time.
Can Student visa holders take on clients?
Student visa conditions normally prohibit self-employment, including when some employed work is allowed. Our cleaning arrangements are self-employed, so you can only take on this work if your current immigration permission permits it. Check your visa conditions first. Read the GOV.UK Student visa guidance.
What should I know about the physical work?
Cleaning is practical, active work that can involve bending, standing, vacuuming and mopping. You must be able to complete the agreed tasks safely on a visit lasting at least 2 hours. Let our team know if reasonable adjustments would help with the work or application process.
Will I need my own equipment?
The household supplies the equipment and cleaning products. Talk through the tasks and any special requirements with your client before the visit.
Which checks come before starting work?
Our checks cover two references, identity, address and the right to do self-employed work. A local interviewer then conducts the final interview in your home and talks you through the role.
How do I check the pay for cleaning work?
We will talk to you about cleaner pay and available client opportunities before you take on a cleaning arrangement.
Could my cleaning round include Walsall?
Yes. Our service includes Walsall as well as Birmingham neighbourhoods. Tell us which areas you can reach, then choose client opportunities that suit your travel plans and availability. You need reliable journeys between homes and a regular commitment to each client.
