It's feeling part of the team maintaining unique surroundings.

It's the community spirit, and it's collaborating to deliver extraordinary service. This is what makes working for the Royal Household so different.

You’ll work in all different types of rooms at the Palace, public facing and behind the scenes, including the visitor route, all public areas, staff offices and State rooms, ensuring that they’re presented to their best for colleagues, visitors and the Royal Family.

Aiming for the highest professional standards, you’ll clean and care for varied interiors and items. This will include floorings, carpets and kitchenware, as well as delicate fabrics and antique furniture.
