Careers

Commercial cleaning jobs in Melbourne, with a supervisor on every shift.

Cleaning work at food factories, childcare centres, schools, shops and warehouses. You're inducted before your first clean, and we roster you to the same sites so you get to know them.

Why Emera

What working at Emera looks like.

What you can expect on each site, from your first shift.

  • Trained before your first clean

    You're inducted on each site and learn its checklist, PPE and safety rules. On food sites, that includes HACCP-based cleaning, safe chemical use and lockout.

  • A supervisor on every shift

    A supervisor runs each shift and checks the work. If you're unsure about anything, ask them.

  • The same sites

    We roster you to the same sites, so you learn each one's layout and routines.

  • A clear checklist on our app

    Each site has its own checklist on our app. You tick off each job and take before and after photos as you go.

  • Work when sites are quiet

    Most shifts are at night, early in the morning, on weekends or between production shifts.

A shift with Emera

A shift, from start to finish.

No two sites are the same, but most shifts follow these four steps.

1. Sign in and get the brief

You clock in on our app when you arrive. Your supervisor runs through the site's checklist and anything that has changed since the last clean.

2. Set up the gear

You set out the equipment and chemicals for the job, and put on the PPE the site needs. On food sites, you follow the lockout procedure before you clean a machine.

3. Clean to the checklist

You work through the site's checklist on our app, area by area. The same crew goes back to the same sites, so you get to know each one.

4. Photos and handover

You take before and after photos and tick off each job. Your supervisor checks the work, and the report goes to the client when the job is done.

Read about Emera
What shifts do your cleaners work?

Most Emera shifts are when clients' sites are closed or quiet, such as at night, early in the morning, on weekends, between production shifts and in the school holidays.

When you send us your details, tell us when you can work.

Will I need a police check to work with Emera?

Yes. Everyone Emera sends to a client's site holds a current police check, including subcontracted cleaners, so you'll need one before your first shift.

On school and childcare sites, you'll also need a current Working with Children Check.

Do you work with cleaning subcontractors?

Yes. Subcontracted cleaners work on Emera's client sites to the same checklists on our app as our own crews.

You'll need a current police check, a Working with Children Check for school and childcare sites, and your own insurance. Email careers@emerafs.com.au about your business and the areas you cover.

What training do you give new cleaners?

Every new Emera cleaner is inducted on the site before their first clean, and learns its checklist, PPE and safety rules. Your supervisor shows you how the site runs.

On food sites, training covers HACCP-based cleaning, safe chemical use and lockout procedures. You also learn our app, where you clock in, tick off the checklist and take before and after photos.

How do I apply for a job at Emera?

To apply for a job at Emera, email careers@emerafs.com.au with your name and phone number, the role you're after, when you can work, the suburbs you can get to and any cleaning experience.
