The work in St Kilda

St Kilda work leans heavily toward Airbnb and short-stay turnovers in beachside apartments, plus recurring cleans for renters in the walk-up blocks around Acland Street and Carlisle Street. Weekend changeovers are common because of the tourist and holiday-let traffic, so cleaners who can turn a unit around quickly between checkout and check-in do well here.

Getting around St Kilda

The Route 96 tram runs the length of St Kilda along St Kilda Road into the CBD, and buses along Barkly Street and Carlisle Street reach into Balaclava and Windsor. Most jobs are a short walk from a tram stop, which keeps between-job travel time low.
