Cool part time house manager job in Malibu

Filled

Posted : 01/01/70

This is the description straight from our client! please let us know if you are interested!

“I just completed a renovation of my house on Broad Beach in Malibu. I’m looking for someone whom I could hire as a house manager. Someone to manage and coordinate the schedule/payment for my housekeeper/pool cleaner/gardener, take in packages that arrive, and rush over to the house in the middle of the night if the alarm goes off (which I doubt will happen very often!). I would love someone with the flexibility to do grocery shopping and turn the pool heat on if we plan to come out, take care of issues with neighbors etc, since I’m a pretty private person. Generally be responsibly for the upkeep of the house (taking stock of the house for leaks/dead plants, lights not working, plumbing) being proactive about fixing them. This is definitely not a full-time job, this person should be able to do this for several properties, and add mine to their slate. I’m hoping to pay about $1000 a week. Thanks so much, please let me know if you think you might be able to help.
