Scandic Backadal is located right off the E6, just five minutes from downtown Gothenburg. We welcome a wide variety of guests, ranging from soccer teams to business travelers. We offer our guests a cozy and welcoming lobby, as well as a relaxation area complete with a pool and sauna.

The team at Scandic Backadal is full of joy and dedication. We simply believe that satisfied employees with opportunities for growth lead to better service and, consequently, satisfied guests.

We are now looking for a housekeeper at Scandic Backadal.

No matter why a guest comes to us, few things are as appreciated as a friendly face that welcomes them. You’ll act as a host alongside the rest of the hotel team and create a world-class guest experience.

With us, you’ll have a great deal of autonomy to make the decisions needed to ensure guest satisfaction, and our teams continuously develop and improve our work processes and service as the world around us changes. We’re convinced that it’s when you’re able to grow and contribute all your skills and experience that we exceed our guests’ expectations. And as a bonus, we have fun at work!

So bring your experience, your dedication, and your way of thinking to us—and help build a culture where we truly care: about each other, our guests, and our planet. Welcome to Scandic!

What does the role entail?

Together with your colleagues, you’ll be responsible for the important task of ensuring the hotel maintains high standards of cleanliness and order, and that our guests experience a “wow” moment when they step into the hotel and their room. The role includes cleaning hotel rooms, hallways, kitchenettes, and common areas. You and your colleagues will help maintain order throughout the hotel, handle laundry, and restock our supply rooms.

Who are you?

To thrive in this role, you need to be meticulous and have an eye for detail. It’s important that you’re physically fit, flexible, and a good team player, as all employees are jointly responsible for the guest experience. You radiate positive energy and are a considerate colleague. You have prior experience in housekeeping and guest service, and can communicate in Swedish. Since we use iPads, you’ll need some computer skills. Previous experience in the hotel industry is a plus.
