What is a House Manager?

A House Manager is someone who may look after one or more residences for their Principals. House Managers are usually employed in a household with several staff who need supervision and guidance. A House Manager may only be looking after one house, or a city & country residence, or they could be looking after several properties around the world and acting as a chief of staff. In some cases, their role will also involve being ‘hands on’ themselves, or they may carry out a purely supervisory role.

The House Manager would need to:

  • Know how to receive guests
  • Control the household budgets and inventory of supplies
  • Oversee and deal with contractors and suppliers
  • Arrange security
  • Organise events and parties.
  • Undertake the opening and closing of residences before and after the principal arrives.
  • Shopping, arranging theatre tickets, restaurant reservations,
  • Arrange the school run

Good House Managers can step into the shoes of anyone in the household should the occasion arise. A House Manager could live in or out, depending on the location and is, more often than not, the most senior member of staff in a household.
