A family of four in Los Altos is seeking an experienced Household Manager to oversee the day-to-day operations of their home. The family already has an established household team—including a nanny, cleaners, gardeners, and tutors—and is looking for someone who can coordinate the moving pieces, manage vendors, and ensure the home runs smoothly.
Responsibilities
- Manage household calendars, appointments, and travel arrangements
- Source, vet, and oversee household vendors and service providers
- Coordinate and manage the existing household team while maintaining high standards
- Oversee mail, household administration, school paperwork, and family logistics
- Anticipate household needs and proactively resolve issues before they arise
- Maintain organization across household systems, accounts, and scheduling platforms
Qualifications
The ideal candidate has previous experience managing a busy private household and is highly organized, proactive, and trustworthy. They should be comfortable making independent decisions, communicating with vendors, and handling confidential household matters with discretion. Experience using digital tools for scheduling, household management, and online accounts is preferred. A reliable vehicle and clean driving record are required.
About the Family
This is not a childcare position, and there are no regular childcare responsibilities. However, because you'll be an important part of the household, the family is looking for someone who genuinely enjoys being around children and would be comfortable stepping in occasionally during an unexpected situation, such as giving a child a ride or supervising them briefly until a parent is available.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Household Manager who enjoys creating organization, improving systems, and supporting a busy family in a professional, long-term role.
Pay: $115,000.00 - $165,000.00 per year
Work Location: In person
