HN375 - Full-Time Butler - NY & CA

British American Household Staffing•New York, NY

2d•$120,000 - $140,000

About The Position

A client based in New York and who resides a portion of the year in California is seeking a superlative professional butler. This role will involve being based in Westchester, NY with time spent in Southampton, NY during summers and Bay Area, CA during winters. 4-5 months of the year will involve working 2-3 weeks in CA and then having 2-3 weeks off, so this is a rotational role for a good part of the year. When in NY, the role will be a regular work schedule with 5 days on and 2 days off. For both CA & NY, the schedule needs to be very flexible but will be split up into 2 shifts a day, working either the morning shift from 6am-2pm, or the midday/evening shift from 2pm-9pm. For NY, the schedule is done in advance but does change for the days of the week, however, the schedule will be 2 consecutive days off and 5 days on. Typically, while on a rotation, butlers can expect to work 5-6 days straight with 1-2 days off. The client won't pay for relocation. Ideally, the candidates are already in commuting distance to Westchester or Menlo Park.

Requirements

The candidate to hire must have a calm demeanor.
Note: this will be vetted for during the interview process by the client’s hiring team.
Being all over the place with answers or too energetic in the sense of not having a discretionary calm won’t work for this role as they are seeking a professional, poised, and discretionary butler; a high caliber of professionalism exemplified in resume, during interview processes, and within the household.
Thank you!
