Points to check before posting:
- Pay isn’t listed. Adding a figure or range will usually improve applications.
- “Full-time” is my assumption, as the original doesn’t give hours or shift patterns, so add them if you can.
- The original says the role will “support the laundry operations” but never says which shifts or days apply, which matters for a hotel.
