Dear wallex-ga,
Could you provide some more detail for your question please. Do you
want a cleaner job than your present one? If so, what is your job. A
little more information on your needs will help a researcher to
provide you with a full answer.

Or do you want to find a job as a cleaner?  
Are you a UK resident or would you be coming from abroad?

Hi wallex,


thanks for an interesting question that lets me draw upon personal
experience: I was in London last summer and spent much aggravating
time looking for a job, so best of luck to you!
