An experienced and trustworthy Housekeeper is being sought for a family near Frome.
This is the family’s 2nd home and they are looking for someone to keep the home clean and organised. Your duties will include laundry, ironing, cleaning, changing bedding, taking deliveries, running any necessary errands and some batch cooking. Someone comfortable with children is required as you may be asked to keep an eye on them occasionally if they pop out although a Nanny is also employed.
This position is to start from 27th July and the family will be in residence for the whole of August. After September, they will be in London for the majority of the time but to/from Somerset during weekends, half terms and holidays. They are happy to pay for a fixed amount of hours per week but some flexibility is essential as some weeks they will need less work and then during holidays/half terms, they will require more work.
The 7 bed home is set in the beautiful Somerset countryside with a large outdoor area. It is an old farmhouse, with an annexe and studio attached.
If you are looking for a long term role and are conscientious and interested in helping the family run their second home please get in touch asap.
