Wonderful adult couple

This role is working with a mindful, fair employer. Expectations are clear and professional, and mutual respect is essential.

About the Household
Our lives are full, but we intentionally maintain a calm, organized, and grounded home environment. This is not a high-chaos household with constant activity, nonstop vendors, or luxury-lifestyle demands. We value steadiness, discretion, and thoughtful execution.

This role is working with a mindful, fair employer. Expectations are clear and professional, and mutual respect is essential.

We are seeking an experienced, grounded Household Manager to support the smooth operation of a private residence and related care coordination.

Household Overview

• One 60-lb bulldog
• Additional responsibility includes oversight and coordination related to a family member with advanced Parkinson’s who lives in assisted care and is supported by a 24 7 caregiver team

The Role
This is a full-time Household Manager position. The role is not a concierge or 24 7 on-call mindset, but flexibility is important. Life occasionally presents unexpected situations, and when true issues or emergencies arise, sound judgment and reliable support are needed.

• Highly detail-oriented, organized, self-starter and proactive
• Self-starter, quick learner, and tech-savvy
• Able to manage multiple priorities independently
• Seeking a long-term, focused role with one household; this position is best suited for someone who can be fully present and well-resourced, without competing household commitments
• Lives within a reasonable commuting distance, or is open to relocating closer if needed

Schedule to Trial Period
• Full-time role with reasonable hours and occasional flexibility
• Weekend support is rare, but may be needed for special circumstances or events
• 90-day trial period required; no planned time off during this period to ensure continuity, onboarding, and household rhythm alignment

Compensation to Benefits
• Salary range: $90,000 – $120,000 annually, dependent on experience and scope
• Full health insurance
• Basic dental (cleanings only)
• No vision coverage
• No 401(k)
• Paid holidays, coordinated around household and travel needs

Additional Requirements
• Résumé must clearly reflect experience aligned with this level of responsibility
• References will be verified
• Comprehensive background check required

Timing
Support is needed sooner rather than later, as the principal is currently recovering from health challenges and is
