Laundry Attendant
Trade Your Lecture Hall for the Maine Coastline
Imagine finishing your shift and walking straight to the water’s edge, where lobster boats bob in the harbour and the Atlantic breeze carries the smell of salt and pine. That’s daily life at LOGE Southport, an adventure-inspired hospitality property tucked away on the island of Southport, Maine. We’re hiring Laundry Attendants for the Work & Travel USA season, and we’re looking for energetic university students who want a real American summer with a coastal twist.
What You’ll Be Doing
As a Laundry Attendant, you are the quiet hero behind every comfortable night’s sleep our guests enjoy. Your day-to-day will include:
- Sorting, washing, drying, folding and pressing linens, towels and bedding
- Operating commercial washers, dryers and folding equipment safely and efficiently
- Inspecting linens for stains or damage and treating or removing items as needed
- Stocking and organising linen closets and delivering fresh supplies to housekeeping teams
- Keeping the laundry area clean, tidy and well-organised throughout your shift
- Supporting the housekeeping and front-of-house team during busy check-in and check-out periods
Why Southport, Maine?
Southport is a small island community connected by bridge to the charming harbour town of Boothbay Harbor – one of New England’s most photographed destinations. In your free time you can go kayaking, hiking along rocky shorelines, whale watching, or hunting for the perfect lobster roll. Lighthouses, sandy coves, ice cream shops and boat tours are all part of the everyday scenery. Portland is a short drive away, and Boston is within reach for a weekend adventure.
