PERMANENT PART-TIME LIVE-OUT HOUSEKEEPER JOB | WHITEPARISH, SALISBURY, UK
SALARY: £15 – £17 GROSS PER HOUR
PHS JOB 3007
Perfect Household Staff is proud to present a part-time Housekeeper role for a warm and welcoming family based in Salisbury, Whiteparish. This is an exciting opportunity for a highly proactive, detail-oriented professional to support a busy family living in a beautiful countryside estate surrounded by acres of land.
The family reside in a large, character-filled main house with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and multiple reception areas. The estate also includes additional guest accommodation (a pool house, outhouse, and studio), although the focus will be on maintaining the main living spaces. The property is newly built and, and while the housekeeper will not be responsible for the exterior, knowledge of delicate surfaces such as marble and wood will be essential. The household includes three school-aged children (10, 8, and 5), so the successful candidate must be DBS certified and confident working independently while being child-friendly and respectful of family routines.
This live-out position is part-time (20 hours per week) and offers flexible scheduling: the family are open to the hours being spread across 5 days or condensed into 3 full days depending on the candidate's preference. They are seeking someone with strong initiative who is passionate about making a household run smoothly without requiring constant direction. The current housekeeper is reducing her hours, and the family are ready to welcome a professional who takes pride in their work and can confidently manage their responsibilities.
While the main focus is on high-standard housekeeping, the role may occasionally include light meal preparation (e.g., following recipes for simple, healthy family meals) and assisting with receiving deliveries or running light errands. Driving is not essential but would be considered a bonus due to the rural location of the property.
A willingness to grow with the role is also appreciated, as the estate continues to develop and additional areas may require care in the future.
