About the role

The Cleaner / Office Assistant role at Kingsfield Diagnostic Services is based in Lagos and supports the day-to-day upkeep of the company's office and facility spaces. Kingsfield is a Nigerian diagnostic testing provider running pathology services across clinical biochemistry, immunology, haematology, sexual health screening and molecular biology, and like any healthcare or laboratory-adjacent facility, keeping office and common areas genuinely clean and hygienic is not just a matter of appearance but connects to the broader standards of cleanliness the company needs to maintain across its operations.

The role blends traditional cleaning duties with light office support tasks, making it a hybrid position rather than a pure janitorial role. On the cleaning side, responsibilities include maintaining the cleanliness of office spaces, workstations, restrooms and common areas, ensuring proper waste disposal and adherence to hygiene standards, and monitoring and restocking cleaning and office supplies so that the workplace never runs short of basic necessities. On the office support side, the successful candidate will assist with basic office errands such as photocopying, filing and running errands, serve refreshments to staff and visitors when required, and support staff with minor administrative duties as assigned.

This combination of physical cleaning work and light administrative support is fairly common in smaller Nigerian offices, where a single support staff member often covers both functions rather than the company employing separate specialised roles for each. For the right candidate, this can actually make the role more varied and engaging than a purely cleaning-focused position, since it involves some interaction with staff and visitors and a bit of task variety throughout the day.

The qualification bar for this role is intentionally accessible: candidates need at least an SSCE (Senior Secondary School Certificate), and the experience range spans zero to four years, meaning Kingsfield is genuinely open to hiring someone with no prior formal work experience at all, as well as someone who has done similar work for several years already. This makes the role a realistic entry point into paid employment for someone just starting their working life, as well as a reasonable fit for a more experienced office support worker looking for a new position.

Because the role sits within a diagnostic services company, candidates should expect that hygiene and cleanliness standards may be held to a slightly higher bar than in a typical general office, given the healthcare-adjacent nature of the business, even though this specific role is focused on the office and common areas rather than clinical or laboratory spaces themselves.

This role suits someone looking for a stable, full-time entry-level or early-career position that combines cleaning responsibilities with light office support tasks, ideally someone who is reliable, comfortable with routine physical work, and confident interacting politely with staff and visitors when serving refreshments or handling errands. It would suit a school leaver just entering the workforce as much as someone with a few years of general office support experience elsewhere.

Applicants preparing to apply do not need extensive documentation or a lengthy CV to be considered given the accessible qualification bar; they should simply be ready to confirm their SSCE certificate and highlight any prior experience with cleaning, office support or customer-facing tasks like serving refreshments to visitors, since these are the concrete skills the listing calls out.

Because Kingsfield operates in the diagnostics and healthcare space, even a support role like this one contributes to the overall impression the company makes on visiting clients and partners, so consistency and reliability in the day-to-day cleaning and upkeep work genuinely matters to the business beyond just internal comfort. A cleaner who takes real pride in this work, rather than treating it as an afterthought, tends to stand out favourably to management over time.
