Duties will include covering all housekeeping duties throughout the high-end home to ensure that the highest level of cleanliness across the property is always maintained.

“Excellent recruitment agency, by far the best anywhere! I’m always hesitant about recruitment agencies, they can make you feel ignored and “just a name on a list.” This is not the case with the Hutchinsons Staff. Frances and her wonderful team have always made me feel special and unique, as if I really matter!

“My experience with Frances and her team is definitely positive. In a business where many people reinvent themselves, not knowing much about how peculiar the world of UHNWI is, Hutchinsons is definitely a must use, both for candidates searching for true work ethic and honesty and for the most discerning clients who are willing to trust a company that does command the codes of luxury!”

“Since the date of meeting with a representative from Hutchinsons, I had the most enjoyable experience. I had been in contact with various agencies in London who were very vague in terms of opportunities available, however this was completely different with Hutchinsons. Within 3 months of approaching Hutchinsons, I had secured a very desirable position which has the scope to travel the entire world.”
