We are looking for a seriously switched-on House Manager / PA to become the right hand to a busy UHNW Principal in Knightsbridge.

This is a role for a real operator – someone who is naturally 10 steps ahead, thick-skinned, highly organised and completely unflappable. You could be coordinating a large-scale party one minute and dealing with the everyday demands of a busy, state-of-the-art household the next. You need to genuinely enjoy juggling multiple moving parts and thrive in an environment where no two days are the same.

You will take ownership of the day-to-day running of the residence, including all typical House Manager responsibilities, managing and overseeing a small household team, HR matters, rotas, contractors, maintenance, suppliers and ensuring the house is always operating exactly as it should.

There is also a strong PA element to the position, supporting the Principal with a variety of personal requirements, shopping, errands and ad hoc requests. Nothing should be considered too big or too small – we are looking for someone who rolls their sleeves up and simply gets things done.

The Principal travels abroad during the school holidays, during which time you will remain in London. The pace naturally quietens when the family is not in residence, giving you the opportunity to get ahead with maintenance, projects and anything that needs addressing before their return.

The core hours are Monday to Friday, 9am–7pm, although flexibility is essential and you should be comfortable being contacted outside of working hours when required.

This is an exciting, incredibly varied position for someone who loves working at pace, takes real ownership of their role and wants to become an indispensable right hand to their Principal.

Start: ASAP

Location: Knightsbridge, London

Hours: Monday–Friday, 9am–7pm + flexibility on the phone out of hours

We have a fantastic new opportunity for an experienced, switched-on Rota Nanny to join a happy, long-standing household in Holland Park, caring for three children aged 6–12.

The children have busy school and extracurricular schedules, so we’re looking for a real pro – someone highly organised, great with logistics and confident managing busy diaries and last-minute changes. Driving is essential, as school runs and getting the children to activities will be a key part of the role.

Just as importantly, the family would love someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with the children, takes an interest in their day and builds a great relationship with them. Emotional intelligence is key – someone who can read the room, get stuck in when needed, but equally knows when to step back as the children become more independent.

The role is completely child-focused. While the children are at school, you’ll keep on top of their bedrooms, schedules, belongings and general nursery duties, working alongside an established household team. There is very little cooking involved as the family has someone covering this, although some simple meals may occasionally be required.

It’s a really positive, happy household, with several members of staff having been with the family for many years, which says a lot about them as employers. They are looking for someone equally committed who would love to become part of the household long term, and ideally has longevity themselves in roles. 

Teaching or educational experience would be a bonus, but isn’t a requirement.

The family travel extensively during the school holidays, including Europe, the US and further afield, so this would really suit someone who genuinely enjoys travel.

Schedule: 1 week on / 1 week off

An exceptional opportunity has arisen for an experienced rota nanny to join a warm, welcoming family based in Notting Hill. The role will primarily focus on caring for a baby who will be approximately six months old when the position commences in October/November.
Both parents have demanding careers and are looking for a professional they can trust to take full responsibility for the baby's care while they are working. They are seeking someone dependable, organised, and genuinely looking for a long-term position. A strong moral compass, excellent judgement, and a calm, proactive approach are essential.
The family also have toddlers, and you will work collaboratively as part of an established nanny team. They are looking for a true team player—someone who is discreet, fuss-free, and highly professional, with the emotional intelligence to integrate seamlessly into the household. They value kindness and respect.
The parents are committed to a traditional, nurturing approach to childcare. They do not wish to introduce screens at an early age and place great importance on raising polite, well-mannered children through gentle, consistent boundaries.


This is not a large, fully staffed household but a close-knit team where everyone is willing to muck in when needed. The successful candidate will be warm, flexible, and happy to contribute to the smooth running of the household, including nursery duties such as keeping the children's areas organised, children's laundry, and preparing meals when these have not been provided by the housekeeper/cook.

Position Details

Location: Notting Hill, London
Schedule: 1 week on / 1 week off
Start Date: October/November
Salary: Circa £70,000–£80,000 gross per annum
