Rota Housekeeper – UHNW Private Household

Location: Chelsea, London

Contract: Full-time, Live-out

Salary: Approximately £50,000 gross per annum (depending on experience)

Overview

We are seeking an experienced, mature, and highly professional Housekeeper to join a warm but structured UHNW private household in Chelsea.

This is a long-term position within a fully staffed but relatively informal young household environment. The successful candidate will rotate with one other Housekeeper, working closely together to ensure the smooth day-to-day running of the residence.

The household is looking for someone with a naturally caring, proactive, and supportive nature — someone who genuinely enjoys looking after a home and the people within it. The Principal is expecting a baby, so they are particularly seeking a Housekeeper who is attentive, thoughtful, calm, and naturally helpful in their approach.

This role would suit someone who takes pride in creating an organised, peaceful, and well-run environment and who notices what needs doing without needing constant direction.

The family also has a dog, so the successful candidate must be comfortable around dogs and happy to assist with occasional dog walking if needed.
