Job Description

A prestigious private estate in the heart of Tuscany is seeking a highly experienced Live-in Butler to take charge of the daily operations of an expansive luxury villa featuring 19 bedrooms, 24 bathrooms, and exceptional amenities including a wellness center, gym, hair salon, and multiple outbuildings. The property also encompasses extensive landscaped grounds, vineyards, and olive groves.

This role requires a polished service professional with a background in elite hospitality—such as private estates, superyachts, or five-star hotels—who is comfortable leading a team and delivering flawless service at all times. When the principals or guests are on-site, full flexibility and round-the-clock availability are expected.

The successful candidate will reside on the estate in a private three-bedroom home separate from the main villa.

  • Oversee guest services, including arrivals, itineraries, reservations, transportation, and concierge needs.
  • Handle budgeting, purchasing, cost control, and maintenance and service schedules.
  • Plan and coordinate private dinners, events, and gatherings of varying sizes.
  • Maintain outstanding standards across housekeeping, laundry, tableware and silver care, inventory systems, and the wine cellar.
  • Partner with the gardening, vineyard, and olive oil production teams to support estate-wide operations.
  • Ensure seamless functioning of security systems, vehicles, and household infrastructure.

Job Requirements

  • At least 5 years of experience in a senior service or estate role (Butler, House Manager, Estate Manager, etc.).
  • Proven background in luxury private households, boutique hotels, large estates, or superyachts.
  • Strong leadership and team coordination skills, with a calm and solutions-oriented approach.
  • Fluency in both Italian and English is required.
  • Hands-on mindset, ready to step into tasks when needed.
  • Excellent communication abilities and refined guest-service standards.
  • High level of discretion and comfort working in UHNW settings.
  • Valid driving licence.

Working Conditions

  • Live-in accommodation provided (private three-bedroom house).
  • Excellent compensation package and additional benefits.
  • 30 days of paid holiday.
  • A rare opportunity to work within one of Tuscany’s most distinguished and beautiful private estates.

Salary

Competitive salary, based on experience.
