Initial Washrooms Hygiene Technician 

Hey there! Ready for a job that actually gives you freedom and fits around your life? 

If you’re tired of being stuck in one place all day, stared at by a manager, or trapped behind a counter, we’ve got something much better for you. 

Here at Rentokil Initial, we are looking for a new Washroom Hygiene Technician to join our friendly, close-knit team at the Leeds branch. You'll be out on the road, looking after our lovely customers across Leeds, Bradford, and Wakefield. 

Don't worry if you’ve never done anything like this before. We genuinely hire for personality and attitude, not a long list of past jobs. We will fully support you from day one with comprehensive, industry-leading training. If you love driving and enjoy making people smile, you're exactly who we are looking for! 

The good stuff 

We believe that if we treat you like a human being and take care of you, you’ll take great care of our customers. Here is what we offer: 

● Real financial stability: A guaranteed starting basic salary of £26,655 a year. 

● Extra cash in your pocket: With our straightforward bonus and commission schemes, you can realistically expect to take home £27,500+ a year. 

● Your weekends belong to you: This is a permanent, Monday-to-Friday job (40 hours a week). No weekend shifts mean you never have to miss family dinners, drinks with friends, or your favorite hobbies. 

● Great daytime hours: Your day fits into a comfortable 6am to 6pm window. No night shifts! 

● A path to earn even more: Want to grow? Our performance-linked Salary Grading System means your base pay automatically goes up as you learn new skills. Down the line, you can even choose to bump up to a 48-hour week for a guaranteed higher salary if you want to. 

Requirements:

What your day actually looks like 

As a Washroom Service Technician, you are the face of our company. You get to manage your own day and your own pace. 

● Out and about: You’ll load up your company van in the morning or start your day straight from home, and then you're on the road. You’ll visit a mix of local businesses—such as offices, schools, and clinics—becoming a welcome, familiar face to everyone there. 

● Making spaces cleaner: You’ll be swapping and refreshing essential products to help keep a cleaner environment—like air fresheners, eco-friendly soap dispensers, hygiene units, nappy units and floor mats. 

● Staying active: Skip the gym membership! This job keeps you moving, walking, and doing some light lifting, which is perfect if you hate sitting still. 

● Pride in your ride: You’ll take full ownership of your vehicle, driving safely and looking out for others using our easy RI Drive Smart tips. 

You’ll be a perfect fit if: 

● You have a full UK driving licence that you've held for at least 2 years (with no more than 6 points). ● You are a friendly person who actually enjoys chatting with people and doing a good job. 

● You are reliable, punctual, and notice the little things. 

● You’re happy for us to sort out a routine enhanced DBS check and security vetting (which we pay for) so you can safely enter places like schools and hospitals. 

The extra perks you'll love 

● Everything you need is provided: You get a company vehicle (for your work travel), a fuel card, uniform, and a company mobile phone. 

● Easy bonuses: Earn up to a massive £1,000 "Refer a Friend" bonus if you bring someone great into the business. Plus, if you're chatting with a customer and notice they need help with additional services, pests or even plants, pass the lead to our sister teams. If they sign up, we pay you a nice commission! 

● Peace of mind: A solid company pension, options for private healthcare, and a 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) that offers free legal, financial, and mental health support for you and your family.

● Massive everyday savings: Get instant cashback and discounts at over 3,000 major supermarkets, high street shops, and restaurants via RI Rewards. 

● Loyalty rewards: Stay with us for 5 years, and we’ll give you an extra 5 days of holiday per year to say thank you. ● Moving closer?: If you are relocating from more than 2 hours away to join us in Leeds, we can give you up to £5,000 in relocation support to help you get settled. 

Benefits:

Who we are: The Rentokil-Initial Family 

You’ve probably seen our vans around! We are a massive FTSE 100 global company operating in over 90 countries. But despite our size, we are engineered to think global and act local. Our goal is simple: we protect people, elevate safety, and actively innovate cleaner environments. 

Through Initial Hygiene, we are rewriting the standard—delivering outstanding customer service for a dignified, hygienic washroom experience, with respect for the planet.

● Initial Hygiene: The world's top commercial hygiene providers (that’s us!).

A company that actually puts people first

We pour a lot of time, money, and love into training our teams because we know that when you do well, we all do well. We love different personalities, encourage you to be yourself, and work hard to make sure our team is a warm, welcoming place to be every single day.
