Description
We are in search for an Executive Housekeeper for a young family to start 12/1/18. This home is 4,000 sq. ft. and in addition to this home, the family owns several other properties the EH may work in. We are looking for someone who will be able to train and manage additional housekeepers for all of the family’s properties. This is a new position so we are looking for EH’s with at least 8+ years of experience in a similar role. The family has children and two medium sized dogs, so the EH should be great with both children and pets.
Duties include, but are not limited to the following:
All major housekeeping
Family’s laundry
Grocery shopping for the family
Running errands
Pet care (walking, feeding, taking to vet and groomers etc.)
The EH’s daily schedule is M-F 8am-4pm with the flexibility to start earlier and end later as needed. Flexibility is essential as the family may need help outside of the EH’s regular schedule on occasional weekends and possible travel to their other properties.
One of the most important qualities in the EH is that they have a great attitude with a strong work ethic. The EH should be able to work alone and with other housekeepers and household staff. She should lead the other housekeepers by example and work well in a team environment. Other qualities include great communication, management and people skills. The EH is responsible for creating an environment of hard work, trust and respect as her role as the lead housekeeper.
This is a national search open to those with experience in a private estate as an Executive/Lead/Head Housekeeper. Long-term tenure in a current or previous position is required, as well as excellent verifiable references.
