Salary: c. £50,000 depending on experience.
 
One of our private clients requires an experienced, hands-on Head Housekeeper for a large private estate in Surrey, with live-in or live-out arrangements considered.
 
The Estate
A substantial private estate comprising a main house together with several further properties, including estate cottages and outbuildings.

The role is very much a doing one, encompassing all aspects of housekeeping and cleaning, as well as responsibility for ordering household supplies. Candidates should have a good attitude and a genuine willingness to turn their hand to whatever is required.
