PHS Job 3373
Perfect Household Staff is pleased to present a fantastic opportunity for a professional Permanent Part-Time Live-In Housekeeper/Cook to join a warm, well-established private household based in Brentwood, Essex. This is a long-term position suited to a dedicated, organised, and proactive candidate seeking stability within a respectful and friendly family environment.
The household currently consists of five family members; however, over the coming months, the household will transition to a quieter setting, with the parents remaining as the primary residents. The family is seeking a committed individual who is looking for a long-term role and can become an integral part of the household.
The property is a spacious six-bedroom home set across three floors. The successful candidate will be provided with excellent live-in accommodation within a private annex, including a separate kitchen, living area, en-suite bathroom, and a large balcony. The family is happy to offer a high degree of privacy and comfort, including the possibility of occasional guests. All the household bills are also included as well as food. Candidates with a small, well-trained dog will also be considered.
