This is a wonderful Family and one of our favorite clients. These two dads are young, hip and very social so they are looking for a House Manager who is like them.

This is not a personal assistant job, this is home management with vendors and events.This is a staffed property without the feel of a staffed home. There are three homes on the property so the principals really need someone who can come in with their own black book ready to go. The vibe in this home is very easy going and wonderful. Your bosses will treat you very well and there is no drama here. Flexibility with your schedule is key, although typically it is Monday through Friday 8:00 – 5:00 pm with occasional dinner parties at the house.This family loves entertaining so please be good with events!

HNW Gentleman in Brentwood seeks FT Driver. When our client is in town, this position works more or less 24/7 and is very busy; however, when he’s OOT (which can be up to three weeks per month!) there’s much less to do. In addition to driving — the new hire will also function as the “car manager” liaising with the garage on Bundy to manage the six automobiles (i.e. renewals, insurance, detail, service etc … ) The position pays salary plus fabulous full benefits (top notch health insurance, dental insurance, 401K & paid time off). Our client is very demanding when in town, but great — reasonable & lovely with a terrific support team. A good 90+% of the job is dealing solely with our client, but there may be times you will drive clients or family members or do errands for his company. Our ideal candidate is super well put together, articulate, well dressed and professional. Pay is in the $80k range + benefits with potential wiggle room for the right person. This is a position for a candidate who is a self starter and can handle both the insanity of the weeks when our client is in town and the quiet/catch up time when he is away. Reach out if interested in this incredible opportunity. Thank you!
