We are looking for an exceptional private housekeeper to run a private residence in Business Bay, Dubai, to the standard of a five-star hotel or palace.
The goal is simple: make daily life completely effortless, so the principal can focus 100% on their professional life. Everything in the home is organised around that goal: a spotless and healthy environment, healthy food, a daily routine that runs itself, and every detail perfect, down to the folded tip of the toilet paper.
Keep the entire residence immaculate and hygienic every day, following written and photographed room standards and a hotel-grade cleaning method
Prepare the home before every arrival: airing, temperature, signature scent, lighting and fresh flowers
Provide an evening turndown service: bed opened, bathroom refreshed, night-time ambience
Keep the kitchen stocked with fresh, healthy food; receive, check and serve delivered meals; occasionally prepare simple, healthy meals
Prepare the daily supplement routine precisely and keep supplies topped up
Have sportswear and gym gear clean and ready for the next day, with a planned rotation
Care for all linen: washing, ironing, rotation of sets and inspection before every use
Look after the wardrobe, delicate garments and shoes
Run the deep-cleaning schedule (weekly, monthly, quarterly)
Manage stock levels and coordinate external providers such as window cleaning and dry cleaning
Anticipate needs: handle tomorrow's needs today, so that nothing at home ever requires the principal's attention
Keep a daily written log and an up-to-date record of the household's preferences
At least 3 years as a room attendant, senior room attendant or housekeeper in a five-star hotel or palace, or in a high-end private household
Exceptional attention to detail and consistency: the same result, every single day
A proactive mindset: you notice what will be needed before anyone asks
Good knowledge of food hygiene, and the ability to cook simple, healthy meals when needed
Absolute discretion; a confidentiality agreement is part of the contract
Autonomy and strong organisation
Expert care of delicate materials: fine linen, marble, wood, leather
Fluent English; additional languages are a plus
A full-time role in a private residence apartment in Business Bay, Dubai
A clear household manual, defined standards and professional equipment
