Job Description

We are seeking a top-tier Executive Housekeeper for a distinguished executive couple residing in Chicago's prestigious Gold Coast neighborhood. This opportunity is perfect for an individual who takes immense pride in maintaining a beautifully run home and aspires to work in an environment characterized by professionalism, respect, and high standards. This full-time position offers a rewarding, long-term career for a dedicated housekeeper who values consistency and enjoys creating an impeccably maintained living space. The household is elegant and spacious, reflecting luxury living, and you will play a pivotal role in ensuring that the home's appearance and operation meet these elevated standards.

This outstanding position involves managing the day-to-day care and organization of a stunning residence, focusing on maintaining order, attention to detail, and household flow. The home is supported by a part-time housekeeper who handles deeper cleaning tasks, allowing you to concentrate primarily on upkeep, laundry management, meal preparation assistance, and organizing the home's various functional areas such as closets and pantries. Your role will be hands-on and essential to the smooth and graceful running of a high-end household, where your skills and dedication will be highly valued.

As the Executive Housekeeper, you will be entrusted with caring for fine furnishings, elegant finishes, and exquisite artwork with the utmost care and expertise. Your daily responsibilities will include laundry and linen care, including ironing, steaming, and closet organization, ensuring everything is presented beautifully. Additionally, you will assist with light meal preparation, grocery shopping, and maintaining household inventories to support the family's lifestyle. Occasional errands, school pick-ups, and vendor coordination support will also be part of your role, requiring a proactive and reliable attitude.

This position is an exceptional fit for candidates who enjoy working within a well-structured environment and appreciate the nuances of managing luxury homes. With a Monday to Friday schedule, generally from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM (or 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM), the role offers stability alongside flexibility for occasional needs. Compensation ranges from $40 to $60 per hour, commensurate with experience, along with benefits such as medical coverage, paid time off, holidays, and indoor paid parking.
