What is a House Manager?

title-image
A House Manager, more traditionally known as a Butler, is required to take on the responsibility for
the other household staff and carry out security, driving and hospitality tasks.

Households are now looking for multi-skilled, practical individuals to fulfill their household needs. A House Manager
is required to be a confident leader, events organiser, and a personal assistant.

​The House Manager will take responsibility for overseeing the smooth running of large properties and residences. This can include organising maintenance, overseeing cleaning, liaising with third party workmen, event planning and administrative tasks such as accounting, negotiating fees and employing staff.

​Some House Managers will be required to manage multiple properties, including properties overseas and this may include commercial property.

​A lot of House Managers come from a commercial or hotel management background.
