Job Description

A welcoming European family is recruiting an experienced Live-In Domestic Couple to take full responsibility for the day-to-day management of a prestigious chalet located in Celerina, near St. Moritz.

This is a long-term, lifestyle-oriented position for a couple who appreciates mountain living, independence, and maintaining a property to an exceptional standard throughout the year.

The chalet is occupied year-round, with the main residence period typically from December to March. During peak stays, additional staff such as housekeepers and a private chef are engaged. Outside of these periods, the couple will operate with a high level of autonomy, effectively acting as the resident managers of the property.
