Join Cleveland Clinic's Main Campus where research and surgery are advanced, technology is leading-edge, patient care is world-class, and caregivers are family. Cleveland Clinic is recognized as one of the top hospitals in the nation. At Cleveland Clinic, you will work alongside passionate and dedicated caregivers, receive endless support and appreciation and build a rewarding career with one of the most respected healthcare organizations in the world.

Our Environmental Services Department is consistently among the highest performing Environmental Services teams in healthcare, and we're looking to add an Environmental Services Team Lead to our team to create a comfortable and safe environment our patients have come to expect. This position is responsible for the cleaning and disinfecting of rooms, restrooms and various common areas assigned to your unit. Other duties include timely completion of discharge and other assorted cleaning requests, establishing rapport with patients and working alongside fellow caregivers from other departments.

The ideal future caregiver is hardworking, reliable, determined, detail-oriented, responsive to changing and pressing requests, proactive in identifying and attending to needs of their assigned area, a good communicator, comfortable working both independently and as part of a team, and empathetic toward patients, visitors and caregivers.

Opportunities to interact with and make positive impacts on patients, visitors, and caregivers, and significant opportunities for vertical growth within a large department (Supervisor and Manager), are just a few reasons this role would matter most to the right future caregiver.

At Cleveland Clinic, we know what matters most. That's why we treat our caregivers as if they are our own family, and we are always creating ways to be there for you. Here, you'll find that we offer: resources to learn and grow, a fulfilling career for everyone, and comprehensive benefits that invest in your health, your physical and mental well-being and your future. When you join Cleveland Clinic, you'll be part of a supportive caregiver family that will be united in shared values and purpose to fulfill our promise of being the best place to receive care and the best place to work in healthcare.
