Job Description

A welcoming international family is seeking an experienced and dedicated Live-In Housekeeper to oversee the upkeep and day-to-day management of their elegant private villa in Jumeirah 1, Dubai.

The household consists of a Swiss principal, his Canadian-Greek wife, and their child, who resides at the property on a part-time basis. The family is looking for a discreet, reliable, and highly organized professional who takes pride in maintaining an immaculate home environment and is comfortable working autonomously.

The residence is a spacious four-bedroom villa with five bathrooms, a home office, and staff accommodation located separately from the main house, ensuring privacy and comfort for the successful candidate.

As the family spends part of each summer in Geneva, Switzerland, the role requires flexibility and a willingness to travel internationally when needed.

This opportunity is ideally suited to an experienced housekeeper from a private household, VIP, or luxury residence background who combines excellent housekeeping standards with a warm, adaptable personality.

Responsibilities

  • Ensure the villa is maintained to impeccable standards of cleanliness, hygiene, and presentation at all times.
  • Perform daily and detailed housekeeping duties across bedrooms, bathrooms, living areas, kitchen, office, and guest spaces.
  • Manage all laundry tasks, including washing, ironing, garment care, linen management, and wardrobe organization.
  • Monitor household consumables and maintain an organised inventory of cleaning products and supplies.
  • Prepare the property before arrivals and ensure everything is in perfect order following departures or travel periods.
  • Carry out periodic deep cleaning and maintain high sanitation standards throughout the residence.
  • Assist with simple breakfast preparation and occasional light meal preparation when required.
  • Work efficiently and independently while respecting the family’s routines, privacy, and preferences.
  • Keep all areas guest-ready and ensure a welcoming environment at all times.
  • Accompany the family during summer stays in Geneva or other travel destinations when requested.
  • Provide additional household support duties as reasonably required.

Job Requirements

  • Previous experience within private households, luxury homes, VIP residences, or similar environments.
  • Excellent housekeeping and organisational skills with strong attention to detail.
  • Honest, discreet, loyal, and professional approach.
  • Ability to work independently and manage responsibilities proactively.
  • Friendly, positive, and service-oriented personality.
  • Good spoken English.
  • Flexible and available to travel internationally.
  • Basic cooking abilities would be appreciated.
  • Candidates currently residing in the UAE are preferred.
  • Immediate availability is advantageous.

Working Conditions

  • Position: Live-In Housekeeper
  • Location: Jumeirah 1, Dubai, UAE
  • Accommodation: Private staff quarters adjacent to the villa
  • Schedule: Six working days per week with one day off
  • Hours: Flexible, according to household requirements
  • Travel: International travel, including Geneva during summer months
  • Start Date: As soon as possible
  • Visa: UAE employment visa provided after successful completion of the trial period
  • Medical Insurance: Included
  • Flights: Provided when required

Trial Period

A paid trial of up to two weeks will be offered to ensure mutual compatibility between the family and the selected candidate. For overseas applicants, visa support or visa extension can be arranged during the assessment period before the family proceeds with long-term sponsorship.

Salary

Competitive package offered according to experience, skills, and suitability.
