Job description
Tiger Private are in search of a Domestic Couple for a working estate in the Cotswolds.
The estate is set in a practically untouched area of English countryside, boasting rolling hills, lakes and lush forests, with numerous historic properties within its walls. The successful candidates will be working alongside a team of staff throughout the year and will be responsible for the general day-to-day running of the working property, including liaising and managing external contractors and suppliers, maintenance duties and any ad-hoc jobs on the grounds or property that need completing. The Domestic Couple are to act as household attendants assisting in daily activities of Guest’s, along with smooth operation of the residence which is hired for exclusive use. When guests are in residence, you will be required to cook breakfast daily for between 2-8 people, as well as occasionally dealing with requests for a light lunch and dinner. However, you will be given support, as well as plenty of time to prepare for this.
The ideal candidates will ideally have a background working in a similar Domestic Couple position due to the fast paced nature of the duties involved. The candidates must be the eyes and ears of the household at all times, especially in the absence of the principal and family, thus must be trustworthy and reliable individuals who communicate well with each other, the principal and other staff. The principal has frequent visitors throughout the year, so a hospitable and professional manner is essential.
Typically, the couple will work 5 days a week (8 hours a day) with 2 days off, but the days off can vary depending on whether the principal has guests visiting. This working pattern may change according to what is required for the upcoming week, so having flexibility is vital. This position comes with large accommodation, as well as a generous bonus.
Only candidates with a proven right to work in the UK can be considered for this role.
