Housekeeper - Akins Ford Arena/The Classic Center en The Classic Center

Join Our Team: Arena Housekeeping (Part-Time)
Location: The Classic Center – Athens, GA
Department: Arena

Do you like working behind the scenes to make big events happen? The Classic Center is looking for energetic, dependable, and detail-loving people to join our Arena Housekeeping team. This isn’t just sweeping floors — it’s helping create the clean, safe, and welcoming environment our guests remember long after the lights go down.

What to Expect:

• During hockey season, you can expect 16–32 hours per week.
• Shifts include weekday projects/day-to-day cleaning and event days.
• Nights/post-event work is essential (typically 10:00 PM – 2:00 AM).
• You’ll work in a fast-paced environment where every day is a little different.

What You’ll Do:

• Team up with supervisors and coworkers to prepare the arena for events.
• Keep everything sparkling — from restrooms and public spaces to backstage areas.
• Replenish supplies and make sure guests have what they need.
• Operate cleaning equipment like floor scrubbers, vacuums, and more.
• Work with third-party crews to keep the arena in top shape.
• Assist with storage, inventory, and organization of tools and equipment.
• Handle special cleaning projects and pitch in wherever needed.

What We’re Looking For:

• Preferably one year of experience in arenas, convention centers, stadiums, or theaters.
• Flexible schedule — nights, weekends, holidays, and extended hours when events demand it.
• Reliable transportation.
• Able to lift 25–50 lbs, walk long distances, and bend/squat/kneel throughout your shift.
• Willing and able to get a forklift license and valid state driver’s license.
• A friendly, customer-focused attitude — because cleanliness is part of the guest experience.

Why You’ll Love It Here:
Every shift, you’ll be part of an operation that brings concerts, hockey games, graduations, and community events to life. You’ll see the arena transform from quiet halls to a buzzing crowd — and know you helped make it happen.

The candidate who is selected for this position will have to successfully pass a drug screening and a criminal background check.
