Housekeeping
Come join the fun, life-loving team at HI Vancouver Downtown Whether it's for summer, winter - or both - you'll have a bunch of friends to explore all of what Vancouver has to offer

We work hard, but make it look easy with our relaxed atmosphere and we offer shifts that help you make the most of your time with us.

What's in it for you

  • Have fun with a tightknit group of colleagues on and off shift
  • A laidback, casual work environment that is a lot less stuffy than working in a hotel.
  • Tons of opportunities to experience our destination on your time off as you become a local expert—free and discounted activities, free hostel stays within the HI Canada network and more.
  • Being part of a notforprofit organization that embraces sustainable tourism.
  • Room for growth and discovery Many of our leaders started out on the front lines, and we're eager to promote from within and provide opportunities to try out different roles.
What you will be doing


This job is more than a housekeeping cart and a list of rooms to clean, it's about being part of a team and interacting with like-minded travellers who are looking for local adventure.

Work as a team to maintain the interior and exterior cleanliness of the hostel.

  • Clean all guestrooms efficiently and effectively to ensure they are ready for check in time.
  • Ensure all common areas, washrooms, showers and hallways are cleaned to our standard.
  • Follow the hostel cleaning schedule.
  • Communicate regularly with the Housekeeping Supervisor and the Night Auditor to ensure rooms are cleaned as needed.
  • Perform laundry duties such as collecting linens and towels, washing, folding, and putting them away.
What we look for

  • People who like to move and roll up their sleeves as you'll spend 67 hours cleaning each day
  • You'll need to enjoy working as part of a team and bringing your positive energy and humour to work every day.
  • You'll also have times where independence is required, which is a great time to jam to those Spotify tunes.
  • You'll need to take pride in whatever you do. Our Housekeeping department has one of the most important tasks in our hostel, and we need teammates who understand that, and are keen to be part of delivering a great experience to our guests every day.
