The Clean-Up Crew Behind the Chaos

We're looking for a housekeeper with a focus on floor cleaning and maintenance— someone who takes pride in transforming chaos back into a pristine gaming floor. If you are detail-oriented, love operating heavy-duty cleaning equipment, and want to see the direct results of your hard work every single shift, keep reading.

What Your Shift Really Looks Like

This is a role primarily focused on floor cleaning and maintenance. Cleaning floors will constitute roughly 60% of the role, with the other 40% being regular housekeeping duties.

• Operate industrial cleaning machines across the casino floor and get the job done on thousands of square feet of carpet, vinyl, tile, and concrete
• Hunt down and eliminate the evidence of thousands of guests – gum on carpets, mystery stains on gaming tables, spilled drinks in corners, and debris that appear out of nowhere
• Execute a systematic two-week cleaning circuit that covers every inch of the casino floor, ensuring nothing gets missed and standards stay high
• Strip and reapply floor coatings to keep our floors looking showroom-new despite thousands of people walking across them daily
• Work independently but stay connected – you're covering your zone solo, but responding to radio calls and jumping in to help teammates and other departments when needed

The Reality Check

After a weekend Flames game, Cowboys Casino can look a bit like a war zone. You'll be on your feet for hours operating heavy equipment, bending, lifting, and moving constantly. The housekeepers who thrive here take genuine pride in their work – they love seeing a filthy floor transform into something pristine, and they don't need someone watching over their shoulder to do the job right.

Here's What We Need from You

• Pride in your craft – you care about doing the job right, not just getting it done
• Ability to work independently –you know your zone and run it without constant supervision
• Detail-oriented eye – you spot the stains, debris, and problems others would walk right past
• Physical capability to lift 50 lbs, operate heavy cleaning equipment for hours, and handle cleaning tasks
• Flexibility under pressure – when 1,500 intoxicated hockey fans create a disaster zone, you get it handled the next morning
• Willingness to help guests – even though cleaning is your focus, you are still passionate about creating extraordinary escapes for our guests

Experience & Qualifications

• 1-2 years carpet cleaning experience with industrial cleaning equipment preferred (auto-scrubbers, swing machines, and commercial vacuums),but we'll train the right person who shows they care about quality work
• Able to speak and write fluent English
• Physical capability for extended periods of standing, walking, bending, and lifting
• Must be legally permitted to work in Canada and be able to pass a background check

What You'll Get

• Work with a team of housekeepers who have your back
• Training on all equipment and procedures to set you up for success
• Benefits package including health, dental, and vision coverage for full-time employees
• The satisfaction of seeing tangible results from your hard work every single shift
• Pride in maintaining one of Calgary's premier entertainment destinations
• Recognition and rewards as you will participate in the Cowboys Way employee recognition program from day one

Not Right For You If...

• You need constant supervision or direction
• You're looking for a quiet, low-pressure cleaning job
• You can't handle working around intoxicated or unpredictable guests

Perfect For You If...

• You take genuine pride in transforming messy spaces into clean ones
• You love operating equipment and seeing immediate results
• You can work independently and stay motivated without someone watching
• You want to master your craft and be part of a team that maintains high standards

Ready to prove you can keep Cowboys Casino looking its best? We're looking for housekeepers who embody the Cowboys Way – people who take pride in their work, support their teammates, and understand that creating extraordinary escapes starts with a clean, welcoming environment. If that's you, we want to hear from you.
