Part-Time Residential Cleaner — Paid Training

S&J Home Services, LLC
Syracuse, NY and surrounding areas

S&J Home Services is looking for a dependable, detail-oriented cleaner to join our small, supportive team. We take pride in our work and want someone who shows up ready to help, communicates well, and treats our clients’ homes with care.

This position is primarily residential cleaning. You will begin by training directly with the owner, then work alongside another team member. As your skills and confidence grow, you may have opportunities to clean independently.

Schedule and pay

• Part-time.
• Typical cleaning start times are between 8:30 and 9:30 a.m., with work generally finishing around 2:30–3:00 p.m. Finish times may vary by the day’s jobs.
• Paid training starts at $17 per hour.
• Pay will be reviewed for an increase as you demonstrate consistent quality, efficiency, and readiness to become a solo cleaner.
• Future opportunities may include commercial cleaning, including overnight work. This opening is primarily for daytime residential cleaning.

What the work involves

This is hands-on, active work. You will clean bathrooms—including toilets—scrub showers and tubs, clean kitchens, dust, vacuum, mop, fold towels or linens as needed, and leave spaces neat and thoughtfully finished.

You’ll need to work at a steady, efficient pace while maintaining our cleaning standards. Details matter: corners, surfaces, finishing touches, folds, and the final check before leaving a home.

Who we’re looking for

• Someone dependable who arrives on time and communicates promptly about any scheduling issues.
• Someone with their own reliable vehicle who can travel to assigned homes throughout our service area.
• Someone with excellent attention to detail who notices what needs cleaning without always being reminded.
• Someone comfortable with an active job involving standing, walking, bending, reaching, and repetitive cleaning tasks.
• Someone friendly and professional who can communicate respectfully with clients and teammates.
• Someone who follows checklists and procedures, asks questions when unsure, and accepts feedback with a willingness to learn.
• A team player who helps coworkers and stays engaged until the job is complete.
• Someone who can eventually work independently and maintain the same standards without direct supervision.

Cleaning experience is welcome, but we are willing to train the right person. Reliability, effort, communication, and a willingness to learn matter to us.

How to apply

Please complete the Indeed application and answer all screening questions thoughtfully. Include your availability, relevant work experience, and why you would be a good fit for our team.
