Hire a Household Manager
Our household managers provide the services you want and the security you need, whether you have one house or several.
Private Household Management
A household manager has a more hands-on approach compared to an estate manager due to being responsible for one household instead of multiple complexes. While estate managers may share some similarities, a household manager is a skilled professional responsible for overseeing the daily operations and affairs of a private residence, focusing on managing the household’s day-to-day needs and ensuring its smooth functioning. They play a crucial role in managing household budgets, coordinating services like cleaning and maintenance, and catering to the personal preferences and lifestyle of the homeowner or family. Household managers excel in creating a harmonious and well-organized living environment, making them an invaluable asset for households seeking efficient and personalized management. We have a pool of hands-on household managers who can run single or several homes. Our house manager candidates are extremely capable and oversee your existing household staff. They also take initiative and (if the job demands it), roll up their sleeves to do the work themselves. Either way, you never have to worry about the daily operations of your household.
Our Household Managers typically perform a variety of tasks, including:
- Chauffeur and transport children as needed.
- Maintain household budget and handle invoices.
- Manage household finances and petty cash.
- Maintain records and create household manuals.
- Inventory and order food and household items.
- Inventory and manage fine items
- Handle guest interactions and correspondence.
- Assist with technology.
- Keep a family schedule and calendars.
- Hire, train, and supervise support staff.
- Manage cleaning staff and home maintenance.
- Schedule appointments and run errands.
- Maintain vehicles and care for pets.
- Provide light to regular housekeeping, laundry, and meal preparation.
Benefits of Hiring a Household Manager
Hiring a household manager offers homeowners a more personalized experience while maintaining expert services. The benefit of this is that they can focus their assistance to the individual preferences of the family and/or client without the added responsibilities of managing a more complex property (or properties) an estate manager would have to shoulder. Therefore, while both options are equally important and vital to successful maintenance of private property, they serve different purposes depending on the client’s needs. It is important to discern which one you will need for your own property
