  • Naturally friendly and welcoming
  • Calm under pressure when it gets busy
  • Proactive, you can spot what needs doing without being asked
  • Proud of keeping spaces clean and well-presented

Are you a perfect match?

  • Ambitious? We have huge plans. There’s never been a better time to join Sofa Club. We are growing fast and need ambitious people to join us for the ride.
