San Francisco

Job Description

A prestigious private estate in the San Francisco Bay Area is seeking a highly experienced and discreet Night Housekeeper to join its household team.

This is a specialist overnight position suited to a Housekeeper who is exceptionally detail-oriented, self-sufficient and comfortable working quietly while the household is sleeping.

The successful candidate will be responsible for maintaining the residence to exceptional white-glove standards, completing detailed cleaning and garment-care duties overnight, and ensuring the principal living spaces are perfectly prepared for the following morning.

The position operates as part of a shared night-housekeeping structure. You will work alongside an existing Night Housekeeper for three nights each week, allowing larger projects to be completed efficiently, while independently managing the property on the remaining two nights.

Previous experience within a five-star hotel, luxury resort or high-end private household will be highly valued.

Responsibilities

Overnight Housekeeping & Deep Cleaning

  • Work quietly and efficiently to avoid disturbing the family.
  • Maintain delicate and premium surfaces including marble, hardwood, bronze, glass, mirrors and bespoke woodwork.

  • Ensure reception rooms, entrance areas, dining spaces and high-traffic zones are immaculate and fully reset before the morning.
  • Perform laundry, ironing, steaming and other specialist garment-care duties.
  • Organise wardrobes and complete closet resets when required.
  • Care for delicate household linens to an exceptional standard.

Turn-Down & Morning Preparation

  • Provide overnight turn-down service according to the family’s established preferences.
  • Prepare the residence for the following morning.
  • Clear and organise dining and entertaining areas after late-evening use.
  • Clean and sanitise kitchen preparation areas.
  • Ensure kitchen spaces are fully restored before the daytime household team arrives.
  • Maintain guest bedrooms, suites and secondary living areas to luxury hospitality standards.
  • Ensure every key area of the property is presented to a consistently impeccable standard.

Independent Night Operations

This role requires someone capable of working independently without constant supervision.

Responsibilities include:

  • Conducting thorough overnight inspections of the residence.
  • Identifying small details or issues that require attention without waiting for instructions.
  • Anticipating cleaning, maintenance and household supply requirements.
  • Monitoring housekeeping stock and maintaining accurate inventories.
  • Replenishing cleaning products, guest amenities and linen supplies as necessary.
  • Reporting relevant maintenance or household issues to the appropriate member of the team.

Job Requirements

The ideal candidate will have:

  • At least three years of experience in housekeeping, turndown or similar roles within a five-star hotel, luxury resort or high-end private household.
  • Exceptional knowledge of luxury housekeeping standards.
  • The ability to work quietly and discreetly while the household is asleep.
  • Strong experience caring for delicate surfaces, furnishings, linens and garments.
  • A meticulous eye for cleanliness, symmetry, presentation and detail.
  • A naturally proactive approach with the ability to identify and complete tasks independently.
  • Excellent organisational skills and strong personal discipline.
  • The ability to alternate comfortably between independent work and working as part of a two-person night team.
  • A discreet, professional and respectful personality.
  • Flexibility to work overnight shifts, including weekends and holidays when required.
  • A genuine commitment to maintaining exceptional standards in a private luxury residence.

  • Weekend shifts included
  • Three nights working alongside the existing Night Housekeeper
  • Two nights working independently

Salary
