We are seeking a skilled and active Live-out Housekeeper for a busy Family, at their large semi-formal Household in Holland Park, Kensington

Other duties may include assisting Chef with food preparation and maintaining kitchen cleanliness, laying simple table for family meals and light welcoming of guests
The Family travel to their Country House for occasional weekends, during which time one of the 3 the Housekeepers may be asked to accompany them, with notice given. However, there is no international travel expected for this role
