We are looking for a committed, proactive, and highly professional Housekeeper (open to international travel) to join a semi-formal, fully staffed private household in Sloane Square, London.

Working alongside a small and supportive team, your responsibilities will include maintaining the property to an impeccable standard throughout the day. Duties include laundry and ironing (including delicate and high-end garments), changing bed linens, caring for furniture and specialist surfaces, wardrobe organisation, polishing silver, and packing and unpacking for travel.

Basic cooking skills would be beneficial, although not a requirement.
