Optus Glean UK provides commercial cleaning across Cambridge — offices, healthcare and CQC-registered settings, industrial premises, retail, education and specialist work — as part of one nationwide contract. Every operative is PAYE-employed and DBS-checked, work follows a written specification, and you pay one fixed monthly fee with a free survey first.
Cleaning across Cambridge's business districts
We clean premises right across Cambridge. Our teams work throughout the city's main commercial areas — Cambridge city centre, Cambridge Science Park, Cambridge Business Park, the Biomedical Campus and Chesterton — as well as out-of-town business parks and industrial estates. You will find our operatives around King's Parade, The Backs and Market Square and the surrounding streets. Whether you run a single office or a portfolio of sites across the city, the specification and the standard are the same on every visit.
Every sector in Cambridge
Cambridge's economy is varied and so is our work here. We clean for higher education, biotechnology and life sciences, technology and software and research and development, among others. That includes healthcare and care settings — including work in and around Addenbrooke's Hospital and Royal Papworth Hospital — to the NHS National Standards of Healthcare Cleanliness 2025 and, for CQC-registered providers, CQC Regulation 15 (premises) and Regulation 12 (infection control), education sites, from the University of Cambridge and Anglia Ruskin University to local schools and colleges and transport hubs such as Cambridge railway station, Cambridge North station and the A14 and M11.
England vetting and regulation
Care settings in England are regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). Operatives are DBS-checked through the Disclosure and Barring Service, with Enhanced DBS checks for school, healthcare and care-setting contracts. All operatives are PAYE-employed by Optus Glean UK — never self-employed or agency labour drafted in per shift — which is what keeps standards and accountability consistent across a contract.
One contract, every Cambridge site
Most cleaning firms in Cambridge can only cover the city and its immediate area. If you operate sites beyond it, you end up juggling a different local cleaner in each place — different standards, different invoices, no single point of contact. Optus Glean UK gives multi-site organisations one contract, one specification and one account manager across every UK site, with the vetting and TUPE capability to take on a switch cleanly.
From Cambridge we also cover the surrounding area, including Chesterton, Cherry Hinton, Histon, Milton and Trumpington.
