Groundskeeper and Handyman for Amazing Creative Family Historic Home on the Eastside

Filled

Posted : 01/01/70

Amazing client with amazing House Manager needs a wonderful Groundskeeper and Handyman to help manage this historic and gorgeous property.

This person needs to be a handy person, who can handle cleaning up the property, making sure the gardener does his job, the pool man shows up, covers the outdoor furniture at night before going home, fixes things around the house, seals up windows fixes doors, paint touch ups, etc.

You will work an 8 hour day Monday-Friday unless you are needed to work on a weekend if there is an event.

There is always something to repair on this property as the home is 101 years old this year. It’s less about coordinating schedules for vendors (the house manager will do that) and more about maintaining your own daily and weekly/monthly/annual to-do list: restarting cable boxes, figuring out why AppleTV doesn’t work, dealing with the fridge making weird noise, dusting off outdoor furniture, testing appliances, water heater in guest house is leaking, replace light fixtures, cleaning rain gutters, restaining front door, etc. etc. on top of troubleshooting/fixing general things that come up. Someone that can work in tandem with a house manager but also take their own initiative. It would be the groundskeeper’s responsibility to alert house manager of more in-depth repairs or projects and the two will work together to source and schedule vendors.

Salary would commensurate with experience.  The person must be vaccinated for Covid, fluent in English – huge plus if you are Bilingual in Spanish, and have a clear background.

Amazing client, we have worked with them before!

Estate manager needed in Connecticut and NY

Filled

Posted : 01/01/70

Our wonderful high profile, and extremely busy client is in need of a well organized Estate Manager to help manage several properties in Westport Connecticut along with a gorgeous apartment in NYC. This is a dream job because the client does not want a lot of people around – she would love for you to source vendors that will clean, landscapers that do not have to be on property, chefs that do not need a full time job. In other words, she would love to live her home without staff – If you are up to travel to all the properties several times a week, oversee staff, create schedule for all vendors and maintenance, oversee all renovations and construction, handle all bids and evaluations of construction, monitor checklists for all locations, and preparing a manual – If you are good at managing from afar, and sourcing good help – this is the perfect estate manager job on the East coast. You must have strong verifiable references, at least 5 years of experience, but would prefer more.

Must send resume and cover!
