Roles and duties of domestic and household staff
Housekeepers – Competence, loyalty and dedication – combined with a positive attitude – all of these attributes are essential in a good housekeeper. This type of employee is always in demand, particularly when combined with childcare and cooking skills.
Couples – Couples who work together cover a whole range of skills and expertise, from housekeeper/cook/nanny and chauffeur/handyman, to the more formal lady’s maid and butler/valet.
Nannies – Well-qualified and experienced nannies to live in or live out, particularly those with driving skills, are in high demand. We also supply maternity nurses, often on a rota/shift basis
Chauffeurs – Our chauffeur candidates have an excellent knowledge of the London and UK road networks and are flexible in respect of working hours, being available from early morning until late evening.
Butlers/Valets – Our butler/valet candidates have experience in private households, silver service, meeting and greeting guests and clients, packing and unpacking suitcases, wardrobe management etc.
House / Estate Managers – Duties include managing the household, supervising other staff, scheduling home maintenance and repair, handling household bills, running errands, arranging events and travel and performing Family Office/PA duties.
Cooks/Chefs – Well-experienced cooks and chefs, who cook from fresh ingredients and use their own flair and individuality, whether it be family meals or a large banquet or dinner party. Sometimes the role is combined with housekeeping or butlering. Many of our cooks and chefs have knowledge of lifestyle and religious dietary requirements and food allergies.
Dailies – We can supply straightforward daily housekeepers, with proven track records.
Domestic Couples – Employing a couple gives you a team working for you, not two individuals. Typically the couple will work as chauffeur/handyman and housekeeper/cook, often with nannying, gardening, errands etc. There is a security plus – a couple are often in the house when the family is away.
Weekend Staff – We can supply weekend staff – to cover when your full time staff are not at work.
Temporary Staff – We also supply all types of temporary staff to cover holidays.
The list above is not exhaustive; Do please call us if you have a particular role you want to fill and we will do our very best to help you.
