Full-Time Live-In Domestic Couple job in Geneva, Switzerland

Job Description

A private residence located in an idyllic countryside setting near Geneva is seeking a professional and committed Domestic Couple to join the household.

In this long-term role, one partner will be primarily responsible for family-style cooking, while the other will oversee household coordination, maintenance, and general support tasks. The ideal couple will be proactive, reliable, and capable of managing their responsibilities with independence, discretion, and a strong sense of service.
