  • Household Coordination: Manage incoming deliveries, packages, and floral arrangements with efficiency and attention to detail, ensuring all items are received, unpacked, and properly placed throughout the home.
  • Additional Residence Support: The principals also maintain residences in Chicago and Miami. Occasional travel may be required to assist with seasonal household preparation, organizational projects, or deep-cleaning assignments.

Job Requirements

The family is seeking a long-term “career housekeeper” with a genuine passion for luxury household service and a commitment to white-glove standards.

Applicants should possess extensive experience working in formal private homes and demonstrate confidence using premium cleaning products, luxury appliances, and specialized care techniques for valuable interiors.

  • Strong longevity and stability within previous positions
  • Experience in formal or UHNW residences
  • High level of discretion and confidentiality
