Responsabilities

The role is for a private household consisting of two adults. The household is currently supported by two housekeepers—one live-in and one live-out. The current live-in housekeeper is retiring, and the live-out housekeeper is set to retire next year, making this an important transition for the household. The home is well-organized, and the family is looking for a reliable and experienced housekeeper to maintain a high standard of cleanliness and service.

  • Housekeeping: Ensure that all areas of the home are maintained to the highest standards of cleanliness and organization, including daily cleaning, dusting, vacuuming, and deep-cleaning when necessary.
  • Laundry & Wardrobe Care: Manage laundry, ironing, and wardrobe maintenance with care and attention to fabric types and specific garment requirements.
  • Cooking: Prepare daily meals for the principals (when they are in Geneva or Schönried), focusing on simple yet well-balanced home-cooked meals. No cooking is required when the family is in Corsica.
  • Errands & Household Support: Assist with grocery shopping, stocking household supplies, and running errands as needed to ensure the smooth operation of the household.
  • Flexibility & Travel: While Geneva is the primary location, occasional travel to Schönried may be required to assist with household management when the family is staying there.
