Working for Poppies

If you’re dedicated and passionate about what you do, we at Poppies offer highly flexible working hours that can fit around your family, studies, commitments and other work.

You will need to be:

  • reliable
  • hard-working
  • honest
  • physically fit
  • able to work at least three hours per session.

In return, you can expect:

  • decent pay at competitive rates
  • travel allowances
  • paid holiday
  • training
  • free uniform
  • opportunities for promotion
  • job security

Our founder Sue Rorstad, started the business to spend more time with her young children, so we understand the need for flexibility and go to extra lengths to reward and value our staff.

Unlike some cleaning companies, we dont source our staff through unreliable external agencies, nor do we force them to be self-employed or work on a casual gig basis.

All of our colleagues are employed directly by us, meaning you get all the benefits of permanent employment with the added perk of choosing flexible working hours that suit you.

You dont need to worry about going out and finding your own clients or collecting money. With a loyal customer base and services that are geared towards regular contracts, cleaning sessions are arranged for you so you can focus on the job at hand and rest assured there’s always enough work to keep you going.

If you want extra responsibilities, there are opportunities for team leaders, supervisors, office assistants and managers – and we actively support staff who aspire to own and operate their own Poppies business.

A valuable, local service

Housework is physical work, done properly it makes a big difference to many people and is hugely satisfying. It can also keep you fit!

Most of our work is for regular clients many of whom really do depend upon Poppies for reliable practical help.

For some clients our service is essential for them to remain living independently in their own home. Wherever possible we try to match regular employees with regular clients so that our service has an extra personal dimension.

Working within Poppies and helping local people can be highly rewarding and offer a great sense of satisfaction and pride.

Reviews From Our Team

  • " Poppies are a great company to work for and the hours fit perfectly around my children being in school. "

    - Ashleigh - Poppies Employee

  • " I have worked at Poppies for almost 2 years and they are great to work for. You know exactly what you are doing and where you will be doing it. It's brilliant for anyone who needs a bit of flexibility with hours etc. I've always found Rob and Michaela extremely approachable and very organised and having worked for some people who are the complete opposite, this goes a long way. You get to meet lovely people and, because you normally have regular clients, you get to know them a little and that is such a nice aspect of the job. I've always said that the better you are treated, the more you will be inclined to go that extra mile with a smile on your face rather than a grimace and that is definitely the case with Poppies. "

    - Christine - Poppies Employee

  • " I love working for this company, my best job ever. I love working with all the staff its like a family "

    - Lyndsay - Poppies Employee

  • " I am so happy to have a loyal, professional and hard working team to work for. I was given house cleaning services and the management make sure that you and the client are both happy before accepting the duty. I have now been given clients who are now my usual each week and I couldn't be happier, the families we work for are so greatful and appreciate all our hard work and I couldn't ask for a better supportive management team, they have an open door policy and are very supportive, not many people can say they enjoy work but I actually do and enjoy coming to work each day and the best thing is, they are very flexible and have suitable hours to suit all. "
