Finding a cleaner with Jobby
- Why searching takes time. Cleaning often takes place outside office hours: early in the morning or in the evening, sometimes spread across multiple locations in a single day. Candidates must be able to combine those hours with the travel, which makes the search more difficult than the job suggests. On JobFunders, there are 400+ cleaning vacancies open in Flanders (surveyed in September 2026): you are therefore competing with many other employers for the same people.
- Typical regimes. Early morning shifts before office hours, evening cleaning after closing time, day shifts in hospitals or production halls, and mobile teams serving multiple clients per day.
- This is how Jobby helps. Jobby searches talent pools of 260,000+ profiles 24/7 and also activates passive candidates who do not respond to vacancies. The first SMS invitations are sent within 2 minutes of activation; you will see your first candidates within 48 hours. If you set "driving license B and own transport" as a must-have for a mobile team, those who cannot reach the customers are immediately eliminated. This way, you spend your time only on candidates who can actually drive the route.
- Examples of must-haves. Set yourself what matters for your job, for example working early or late shifts, a category B driving license for mobile teams, experience with a scrubber-dryer, or fluent Dutch for contact with customers.
- Extra shifts. For extra shifts or busy periods, you can also work with flexi-jobbers. You can read how to do this correctly in our guide. hire a flexi-job worker.
- Fair price. An annual subscription of €1,500 (Solo) to €6,000 (Scale) with a match guarantee, or €100 per approved candidate. A free ATS is included and there are no selection fees.
- And compared to interim? As a market average, a traditional interim agency charges a coefficient of approximately 2.10 on the gross salary for the duration of the interim period. If you still wish to start on an interim basis, Jobby finds and screens the candidate, and you work via payroll for an interim partner at a market-average coefficient of approximately 1.60. These are estimates: adjust them with your figures in the recruitment cost calculator. If you need cleaners who are immediately available at very short notice, an interim agency can be the right choice.
