About Emerald City Cleaning (Hablamos Español, Fundada y manejada por la Dueña que es Latina)
Emerald City Cleaning is a BBB and ARCSI-accredited cleaning service based in Seattle, known for our professionalism and commitment to quality. Our team works with top-tier equipment and supplies, and we take pride in creating clean, safe environments for the clients who count on us.
The Role
This is a genuine overnight role. Shifts start at 9:00 PM and run into the late night, Monday through Friday depending on the site. Please only apply if you can reliably start work at 9:00 PM or later - if you need daytime or early-evening hours, this is not the right fit.
Great for students and anyone who prefers a late schedule: you work after class and after the daytime rush, in quiet, empty commercial buildings.
What you'll do:
- Clean commercial offices and common areas after hours - floors, restrooms, trash, wipe-downs, restocking
- Work independently or with a small crew at sites around Seattle and Bellevue
- Follow a simple checklist and clock in and out on your phone
What we're looking for:
- You can reliably START shifts at 9:00 PM or later, on weeknights
- Dependable and on time - our clients count on the work getting done overnight
- Reliable transportation to sites in Seattle and Bellevue
- Comfortable on your feet and doing physical cleaning work
- Cleaning experience is a plus but not required - we train
Pay and details:
- $22-28/hr depending on experience, plus paid drive time between sites
- Part-time, weeknights
- You bring slip-resistant shoes and pants; we provide the shirt
If a 9:00 PM start works for your schedule, apply and we'll be in touch quickly.
