There's always something happening at The Usual Brussels! Luckily, you're never on your own. Together with an enthusiastic team of housekeepers and supervisors, you make sure our rooms and public areas look their best every day and our guests feel right at home.

At The Usual, we believe travel can be a force for good. We are building a new generation of hotels that combine thoughtful design, meaningful hospitality and responsible business practices. Our hotels are places where guests feel instantly welcome, locals feel at home and teams are empowered to bring their authentic selves to work every day. To strengthen our team, we're looking for a Housekeeping Manager. Are you ready to take the lead, roll up your sleeves, and make a difference together with your team? Join us on our journey!

We challenge ourselves to think differently, move fast and create experiences that matter. As Housekeeping Manager, you will play a vital role in bringing that vision to life.

  • Care deeply: Support the recruitment, onboarding, training, and development of team members. Create an environment where everyone feels welcome, respected, and valued.
  • Keep it safe: Ensure compliance with health, safety, hygiene, and cleaning procedures, including the safe handling and storage of cleaning products and equipment.
  • Do good: Contribute to our sustainability ambitions by encouraging the responsible use of cleaning products, water, energy, and other resources, while finding ways to reduce our environmental footprint.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
