RESIDENTIAL CARER/COOK/HOUSEHOLD MANAGER

A long-term client of Hutchinson’s is seeking an immaculate and experienced Cook and Carer/Household Manager.  Duties include assisting this delightful 90-year-old gentleman with his bathing and dressing each day, ensuring that his medication is given and taken and noticing when he is not responding to his treatment.

A cleaner/housekeeper and laundress of many years is employed, so there is no cleaning or laundry to be done  However, it would be wonderful if the new employee could undertake general wardrobe management, driving the client to appointments and taking responsibility for the general day to day running of the household.

The ideal candidate will have a well-refined and traditional way of working and be able to interact with other staff working in the house.  An experienced driver would be a plus and the ability to run errands. The employer is mentally fit and deals with his own post, e-mails and bills. 

Good nutritious meals need to be cooked each day for the client, who no longer entertains. So, you will be required to provision the house and care for the kitchen, order in supplies, and serve the gentleman with his meals each day.  The gentleman does have a Devon residence, but there is another Housekeeper employed there.

Top negotiable salary for the right person depending on experience. A large bedroom with ensuite bathroom, separate sitting room and use of the main kitchen within the large apartment is available and candidates would be considered with partner following own occupation.

 Non smokers please.  (REF HU1165)

“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!”

Within 3 months of approaching Hutchinsons, I had secured a very desirable position which has the scope to travel the entire world.”
