The role
What a Great Household Manager Does.
A household manager runs the home the way an office manager runs a business: vendors, schedules, staff, inventories and the quiet logistics that make a home feel effortless. We place people who are proactive, discreet and good with other staff.
- Vendor, contractor and maintenance management
- Household staff scheduling and oversight
- Inventories, ordering and household accounts
- Travel, events and seasonal preparation
- Family calendar and errand coordination
How It Works
How a Household Manager Search Runs.
- 01
Inquiry & Introduction
A one-minute inquiry tells us who you are and what you need. You receive a confirmation right away, and we respond within 24 hours.
- 02
Discovery & Client Intake
A conversation by phone or email, then a short division-specific intake so we understand the role, the schedule, the compensation and what matters most.
Household overview, responsibilities, schedule, location and travel, compensation and your non-negotiables.
- 03
Proposal & Engagement
A clear proposal: scope, what is included, the flat fee, deposit and payment terms, and how we will communicate. The search begins when the agreement is signed and the deposit is received.
- 04
Search & Candidate Selection
We source, interview, verify references and complete the screening the role calls for, then present a curated shortlist with updates on the schedule we agreed.
Household candidates are screened for the home: references from previous families, a background check and a driving record review.
- 05
Interviews & Placement
We schedule interviews, gather feedback, arrange trials or assessments where appropriate, and help with the offer through acceptance and a confirmed start date.
A paid trial day in your home is part of most household placements.
- 06
Onboarding & Ongoing Support
We confirm the start went well, check in after the first week and again around 30 days, and stand behind the placement with the replacement guarantee.
Household placements carry our 1-year replacement guarantee.
