Job description

Days: 5 days per week (including some weekends)

Location: Chelsea

Salary: £40,000 (depending on experience)

Contract: Permanent

A new position has arisen for a proactive and flexible service-oriented Chauffeur/Personal Assistant for an UHNW household in Chelsea.

Working a rota schedule with other staff members, you’ll integrate seamlessly to provide daily service and driving duties for the Principal.

You’ll be on-hand to provide informal food & beverage service, handling daily attendances, small gatherings, and occasional larger dinner parties.

You will also run errands, dress the household for seasonal celebrations, undertake light household maintenance such as changing lightbulbs, help with travel preparations, direct housekeeping staff, and generally be available to ensure everything goes smoothly.

As a Driver, you will have a full clean UK license, be confident driving within central London, and will accompany the Principal to offices, meetings, and appointments.

Ideal candidates will be very well presented, with a proactive flexible attitude and excellent communication abilities.

This role may suit a more junior candidate, or candidates from a 5* Hotel background (or another luxury service environment), who are seeking entry into the Private Household sector.

You will be contracted for a 5-day working week, to include weekends on rotation. The Principal travels extensively, so when they are in-residence you will need to offer flexibility to their schedule (and when they are away, your schedule will be lighter).

To apply for this role you must:

  • Be eligible to work in the UK
  • Be fluent in the English Language
  • Have a valid DBS check or be willing to obtain one
  • Have a full, clean driving license
  • Have excellent contactable references
  • Have 3+ years’ experience working within a 5* hotel or other luxury environment
