Housekeeper / Household Assistant

10–15 Hours Per Week | Monday, Wednesday & Friday | 8:00am Start Preferred

We are looking for a reliable, experienced and highly organised Housekeeper to join our busy family household.

This is a large family home, so we need someone who is proactive, takes pride in their work and can maintain a consistently high standard every time. We are looking for someone who notices the details, takes ownership and understands that the home needs to be kept organised and running smoothly.

Laundry is a very important part of this position, including washing, drying, folding and putting away clothing and linen. You will also be responsible for staying on top of wardrobes and ensuring clothing and belongings are organised and returned to the correct place.

It is important that you take the time to learn the home and where everything belongs. We want someone who will become familiar with our systems and routines so things don't end up misplaced or in the wrong location.

General housekeeping will include:

• Cleaning, vacuuming, mopping and dusting

• Bathrooms and kitchen cleaning

• Laundry and linen

• Wardrobe and household organisation

• General tidying and maintaining the home to a high standard

The role is 10–15 hours per week across Monday, Wednesday and Friday, with an 8:00am start preferred.

The hours will vary depending on what the household needs, but most days will be 3 to 4 hours, with a preference that you work efficiently, completing your tasks before the afternoon.  That said, there may be surges in activity, and if you are able to occasionally work until later in the day, that flexibility will be an asset.

There is potential for the role to grow into a House Manager position for the right person.

As trust and familiarity with the household develops, additional responsibilities may include small errands such as post office trips, gift wrapping for children's birthdays, helping prepare for family events and coordinating small household tasks.

You will be:

• Reliable, punctual and trustworthy

• Highly organised and detail-oriented

• Experienced with housekeeping and laundry

• Proactive and able to work independently

• Careful and respectful with belongings

• Someone who takes pride in achieving a high and consistent standard of work

• Looking for a long-term role with the opportunity to take on more responsibility

We are looking for someone who wants to become a trusted and valued part of the household and grow with the role.

Previous experience in a large family home, private household or similar housekeeping role is highly regarded.
