Description

🌿 Sunshine Coast, QLD – November 2026 to November 2027 – Experienced cleaning couple – Paid position

A privately owned coastal farm on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, is looking for two experienced and reliable cleaners, ideally a travelling couple, for a long-term paid position.

The property offers the best of both worlds β€” a peaceful rural lifestyle just 10 minutes from the beach, with regular paid work and the option to stay on the property with your own caravan.

The role is available from November 2026 through to November 2027, with shorter 4–6 month stays also considered.

The work

There are approximately 20–40 hours of paid cleaning work per week, shared between two people.

Both applicants need to be experienced cleaners who can work independently and maintain a high standard of presentation.

Duties will include:

βœ… General cleaning
βœ… Bathrooms and kitchens
βœ… Living areas
βœ… Floors and surfaces
βœ… Detailed cleaning
βœ… Property presentation
βœ… Maintaining consistently high standards

All cleaning equipment, products and supplies are provided.

Flexible hours

Cleaning work is available across seven days a week.

Much of the work is scheduled well in advance, often months ahead, making it easier to plan days off and other commitments.

Weekend work will be required from time to time, with applicable penalty rates paid.

There may also be optional paid hours available for:

βœ… Gardening
βœ… General property maintenance

Pay

All cleaning work is paid at the applicable award rate.

Indicative casual rates include:

βœ… Monday–Friday: $33.85 per hour
βœ… Saturday: $47.39 per hour
βœ… Sunday: $60.93 per hour
βœ… Public holidays: $74.47 per hour

Actual rates will depend on the applicable award, classification and employment arrangement.

Caravan parking and private facilities

For applicants travelling with their own caravan, onsite accommodation is available for $400 per week, including electricity and water.

This includes:

βœ… Caravan parking on the property
βœ… Exclusive use of a kitchen
βœ… Exclusive living area
βœ… Two additional private rooms
βœ… Luxury bathroom
βœ… Sauna
βœ… Steam room
βœ… Hot tub
βœ… Landscaped gardens and rural surrounds

The owners may also be able to accommodate a horse by arrangement.

Pets may be considered on application.

Who they’re looking for

A couple is preferred, although two suitable friends or other applicants may also be considered.

Applicants should be:

βœ… Experienced in professional cleaning
βœ… Reliable and trustworthy
βœ… Self-motivated
βœ… Capable of working independently
βœ… Detail-focused
βœ… Proud of maintaining high presentation standards
βœ… Equipped with their own vehicle and reliable transport

Previous cleaning or caretaking references would be highly regarded.

Length of stay

The owners would ideally like people who can stay for 12 months or longer, although strong applicants looking for a 4–6 month stay may also be considered.

This could suit:

βœ… Mature or semi-retired couples
βœ… Grey Nomads travelling with their own caravan
βœ… Experienced cleaners
βœ… Hospitality workers
βœ… People looking for a quieter lifestyle close to the coast

How to apply

Please send a brief introduction covering:

β€’ Your cleaning experience
β€’ Your availability
β€’ How long you’d like to stay
β€’ Whether you have your own caravan
β€’ Whether you have pets or horses
β€’ Any relevant references

This is a strong opportunity for a travelling couple looking for reliable paid work and a comfortable Sunshine Coast base in a beautiful rural setting.
