Construction Site Cleaner Job Description
As a Construction Site Cleaner placed by Quick Placement in Brighton BN1, you will play a vital role in maintaining a safe, efficient, and compliant working environment on active construction projects. Your work directly supports the safety of all construction workers, including carpenters/joiners, electricians, and plumbers, by eliminating trip hazards, managing waste streams, and ensuring the site meets the high standards expected by main contractors and site managers. Our clients range from large-scale residential developers to commercial refurbishment specialists across Brighton, Hove, and the wider Sussex region. They rely on us to provide dependable staff who understand the unique demands of a live construction environment.
Registering with Quick Placement gives you access to a steady stream of construction site cleaner opportunities without the hassle of constantly searching for new roles. We handle the admin, negotiate pay on your behalf, and ensure you are paid accurately and on time. Whether you're looking for a short-term assignment or a longer-term temp-to-perm pathway, our dedicated consultants work to match your skills and availability with the right projects. We are proud to be a key part of the local construction ecosystem, much like our specialist services for Construction Staffing and CSCS Labourers across the UK.
Key Responsibilities & Daily Duties
- Sweeping and clearing debris: Proactively and regularly sweeping floors, walkways, and work areas to remove dust, off-cuts, packaging, and other general construction waste to prevent accidents and maintain a tidy site.
- Waste segregation and management: Correctly sorting and disposing of waste materials into designated skips or containers (e.g., general waste, wood, metal, plasterboard) in line with site environmental policies and recycling targets.
- Toilet and welfare facility cleaning: Ensuring all site welfare units, including toilets, canteens, and drying rooms, are cleaned, sanitised, stocked with supplies, and maintained to a high standard of hygiene for all site personnel.
- External area maintenance: Keeping the site perimeter, access roads, and communal areas free from litter and mud, which may involve using pressure washers or shovels after inclement weather.
- Supporting trades and site safety: Assisting other trades where appropriate with basic tidying after their work and promptly reporting any major hazards, spillages, or damaged safety signage to the site supervisor.
Essential Skills & Requirements
- Proven experience: Previous experience as a construction site cleaner, warehouse cleaner, or in a similar industrial cleaning role is highly advantageous. An understanding of construction site protocols is a significant plus.
- Physical fitness and reliability: The role is physically demanding, involving lifting, bending, and being on your feet for the full shift. You must be reliable, punctual, and have a strong work ethic.
- Safety awareness: A keen awareness of health and safety. A valid CSCS card (any colour) is a major advantage, though not always essential for cleaner-specific roles. We can advise on obtaining one through our network.
- Initiative and teamwork: The ability to work effectively with minimal supervision, use your own initiative to identify areas needing attention, and work cooperatively with other site staff and construction workers.
Salary, Pay & Benefits
We believe in fair and transparent pay for all our temporary workers. As a Construction Site Cleaner in Brighton BN1, you can expect a competitive hourly rate that reflects your experience and the specific demands of the site.
Pay Structure & Details
- Hourly Rate: £12.50 - £14.50 per hour (PAYE, inclusive of holiday pay).
- Payment Frequency: Weekly payments, processed every Friday for the previous week's work.
- Overtime Potential: Opportunities for overtime may be available on larger projects, often paid at a higher rate.
- Temp-to-Perm: For standout performers, many of our clients offer the opportunity to transition to a direct, permanent employment contract with enhanced benefits.
In addition to competitive pay, working through Quick Placement provides stability and support.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a CSCS card to work as a Construction Site Cleaner in Brighton?
While not always mandatory for every cleaner-specific role, a CSCS card is highly desirable and often required by larger contractors for site access. It demonstrates your health & safety awareness. Many of our clients in BN1 prefer or require it. If you don't have one, Quick Placement can advise you on the quickest and most cost-effective way to obtain the appropriate card, often through our recommended training partners.
What kind of shifts and hours can I expect?
Shifts typically follow standard construction hours, often 7:30/8:00 AM starts, finishing around 4:30/5:00 PM, Monday to Friday. Some projects may offer overtime on weekends. We also have roles with early starts or later finishes. During your registration call, be sure to discuss your availability so we can match you with suitable projects. For those seeking ultimate flexibility, we also recruit for various Temp Employment roles across sectors.
What should I wear and bring on my first day?
You must wear sturdy, steel-toe-capped safety boots (which are a legal requirement on most sites) and durable, high-visibility clothing (hi-vis vest or jacket). We recommend bringing your own hard hat and safety glasses if you have them, though the site will usually provide PPE. Also bring your CSCS card (if applicable), photo ID for right-to-work checks, and any tools relevant to cleaning (like work gloves). Your consultant will confirm specific requirements before you start.
How quickly can I start working after applying?
We pride ourselves on speed. For urgent vacancies, if your documents are in order and you pass a quick compliance check, you can often be placed on a site within 24-48 hours. The process is designed for immediate starts, which is why we are a preferred agency for both job seekers and employers in Brighton. See how we operate in our video: .
I have experience as a Warehouse Cleaner. Is this role suitable for me?
Absolutely. The skills are highly transferable. Both roles require diligence, physical stamina, and an understanding of industrial cleaning and waste management. The main difference is the construction site environment, which has specific safety protocols. Your warehouse cleaner experience is valuable, and we would highlight this to our construction clients in Brighton. We recruit for both types of roles, so let your consultant know your full experience.
Does Quick Placement offer any other construction roles in Sussex?
Yes, we are a full-service Construction Recruitment Specialist. In addition to construction site cleaners, we regularly recruit carpenters/joiners, general labourers, banksmen, traffic marshals, and skilled trades across Sussex. Registering with us opens the door to all these opportunities. You can also browse our dedicated Roles We Recruit page for a comprehensive list.
