Self Employed Housekeeper

Where: Central London

Contract: Full-time, Self-employed

Salary: £33,000-£38,000 per annum, negotiable

Status: Live-out

A lovely HNW couple would like to appoint a reliable and hard-working full-time live-out Housekeeper to assist them with the smooth running of their 5-storey home in Central London. The ideal candidate will be energetic, proactive, and able to manage their time efficiently, manage all housekeeping and laundry requirements at the property, and undertake daily cooking duties.

You will ensure that high standards of cleanliness are maintained across the property and will be responsible for all general and deep cleaning duties, as well as cooking simple, healthy meals, and following their favourite recipes (mostly just lunch, but sometimes breakfast too). You will need to have excellent knowledge of how to care for luxury furnishings and use appropriate cleaning products. Further responsibilities will include unpacking deliveries, organising cupboards/drawers, and ensuring all groceries and household products are always topped up.

Usual working hours are 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday, but flexibility will be required to occasionally work longer hours when required, or on a weekend day, which will be paid as overtime. The clients are looking for a switched-on Housekeeper with a kind, caring and positive demeanour to remain with them long-term. Ideally, you will be tech-savvy and be able to place orders online, but this is not essential.

· Daily cleaning including dusting, vacuuming, mopping, changing beds, cleaning bathrooms and kitchen
