Turkish-Speaking Housekeeper for Private Residence in Miami

This exclusive opportunity is for a Turkish-speaking Housekeeper to join the private staff of an Ultra-High-Net-Worth (UHNW) Principal's newly established private residence located in Miami, Florida. The position is full-time and permanent, offering a competitive salary ranging from $65,000 to $90,000 gross per annum, dependent on experience. Both live-in and live-out options are considered for the ideal candidate, catering to personal preferences and living arrangements.

The hiring establishment is a newly built upscale residence designed to meet the highest standards of luxury and comfort for an UHNW Principal. As part of a small, close-knit household team which includes two other housekeepers and a house manager, this role demands meticulous attention to detail and the ability to maintain an immaculate and orderly home environment. The Principal’s residence requires not only daily upkeep but also rigorous seasonal deep cleaning and ongoing maintenance of fine surfaces, delicate materials, artwork, and luxury finishes that require specialized care.

This housekeeper role is a setup hire, which means the successful candidate will be instrumental in preparing the residence ahead of the Principal’s full move-in at the end of 2026. This includes organizing wardrobes, linen cupboards, establishing supplier relationships, and familiarizing themselves with the Principal’s personal preferences to ensure a seamless transition into the new home. This phase also presents the unique opportunity to support the Principal’s other residences and travel to assist at various properties or luxury hotels as needed, enhancing the household’s operational efficiency and ensuring consistent service standards.

The position requires proven experience in a similar setting, preferably within UHNW or HNW private residences, luxury hotels, yachts, or luxury villas. It is not a stepping-stone role; applicants must already have a deep understanding of high-level housekeeping standards, including laundry, ironing, steaming, and wardrobe management. This role also expects the housekeeper to be service-capable – comfortable providing drinks, refreshments, and light food service when the Principal or guests are in residence, filling in as needed without a separate dedicated butler position.

Fluency in both Turkish and English, spoken and written, is mandatory to facilitate smooth communication within the household team and with outside suppliers. The candidate must also be legally authorized to work in the United States. Experience with small pet care, specifically a small dog, and flexibility with work hours are essential, reflecting the dynamic nature of this role and the household’s needs.

Strong advantages for candidates include prior experience setting up new residences, yacht interior or stewardess backgrounds with excellent service standards, and robust local Miami knowledge, especially trusted dry cleaners, suppliers, and household logistics. A demonstrated ability to work harmoniously in a small team setting is highly valued, as the household culture emphasizes collaboration and clear communication through a well-defined reporting line to the House Manager.

Joining this household offers the unique chance to play a critical role in launching and sustaining a luxury residence that reflects the Principal’s discerning taste and lifestyle. The role promises a supportive environment where teamwork and expertise are recognized and rewarded, with attractive remuneration and benefits. This prestigious position requires dedication, confidentiality, and the exceptional skill set that an UHNW household demands, offering a rewarding career path for a highly qualified Turkish-speaking housekeeper willing to contribute to the impeccable upkeep and smooth running of this exceptional private estate.
