About the Position

Are you someone who enjoys taking responsibility, supporting others, and being part of a team that takes pride in their work?

We’re looking for a Housekeeping Supervisor to join our new team at Motel One in Copenhagen. This is a hands-on role where you’ll be part of the daily operation while also stepping into a leadership role when needed.

At The Ellen Group, we’re working to build a culture based on care, kindness, respect, trust, and accountability.

You will play a key role in supporting the team and helping establish a structured, respectful, and high-performing operation from day one.

This is a dual-role position:
You will work as part of the housekeeping team on a daily basis, while also stepping into a supervisory role when needed (weekends, holidays, and when the manager is not on site).

If you enjoy leading by example, supporting others, and creating an environment where people feel respected and take pride in their work, this role may be for you.
