About the Family

A warm and welcoming professional couple located in Amagansett, NY is looking to hire a dedicated and detail-oriented Housekeeper to join their 6000 sq ft. household. They both work from home and value discretion, reliability, and someone who takes pride in maintaining a calm, clean, and well-organized environment. They are seeking a long-term fit who will become a trusted and consistent presence in their home. There are no children or pets in the home.

Responsibilities

• Daily cleaning and upkeep of the home, including dusting, vacuuming, mopping, and disinfecting
• Full laundry duties including washing, ironing, folding, and organizing
• Maintaining organization and cleanliness throughout all rooms and storage areas
• Polishing surfaces, handling fine furnishings with care
• Keeping supplies stocked and informing the family of any household needs
• Light meal prep appreciated but not required
• Occasional errands or vendor coordination during the family’s travel periods

Ideal Candidate & Personality

The ideal candidate is highly detail-oriented, proactive, and trustworthy. They should have an “OCD-level” standard for tidiness, communicate clearly, and work efficiently without supervision. A calm, mature demeanor and pride in keeping a beautiful and well-run home are essential. The family travels for 3–4 months per year, so a candidate who can independently maintain the home during that time is key.

Requirements

• Prior experience as a housekeeper in a private, high-end home
• Legal to work in the United States
• Strong English communication skills
• Ability to handle luxury finishes and delicate furnishings
• Punctual, reliable, and discreet
• Comfortable working solo and managing the household in the principals’ absence
