About this role

Perfect Household Staff is delighted to present an excellent opportunity for a professional, proactive, and highly organised Housekeeper/Cook to join the home of a single professional principal in the prestigious Chelsea area of London. The principal has recently moved into a beautifully renovated four-storey, three-bedroom property and is seeking a reliable domestic professional to establish and maintain the home to an exceptional standard from the outset. Chelsea is one of London's most desirable residential locations, offering outstanding amenities, attractive green spaces, and excellent transport connections. This role would suit an experienced Housekeeper/Cook who takes pride in working independently, uses initiative, and enjoys taking ownership of a well-maintained private household.

This is a permanent, live-out, part-time position offering 15 hours per week. The principal is flexible regarding the working pattern, with either three or five working days per week available depending on the successful candidate's availability. Working as a Housekeeper/Cook within this household involves maintaining immaculate housekeeping standards while supporting the smooth day-to-day running of the home with meal preparation, garden care, household organisation, and careful attention to detail. The successful candidate will be confident working independently, requiring minimal supervision while maintaining consistently high standards throughout the property.

Working as a Housekeeper/Cook in this household involves taking full responsibility for the presentation, cleanliness, and organisation of the home while preparing simple family style meals through batch cooking and meal preparation. Responsibilities include daily resets, scheduled deep cleaning, laundry, ironing, basic wardrobe care, guest room preparation, arranging dry cleaning, and maintaining organised storage areas throughout the property. The role also includes caring for delicate marble surfaces, carrying out light garden tidying such as sweeping and watering, and ensuring the home remains beautifully presented at all times. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced, flexible, and initiative-driven Housekeeper/Cook seeking a long-term role within a welcoming private household.
