Can house managers take a leadership role?
Estates need great house managers to lead
Absolutely. Most domestic staff in estates will be working closely with either a house manager or chief of staff. We take great pride in our long-term relationships with candidates with such skills.
Suppose your household staff needs an exceptional leader in a complex estate. In that case, we can even visit your residence to understand better the operations and mindset of the professionals running the estate. That way, our placement will get the support needed because the match will be correct.

How much do the best domestic staffing agencies charge?
Fees for the staffing agency vary based on a few factors. Private residences should expect to pay 25% of candidates' annual compensation package as a commission. Please be advised that the calculation for the remuneration isn't just on the salary but all items that add value to the overall package:
Remember that whether you employ a family assistant, private chef, or childcare provider, they are considered employees and not independent contractors. All staff working in the household should be paid "on the books" with taxes being paid.
- Health insurance
- Company car
- Accommodations
- Paid vacation
- 401(k) or any retirement benefits

How much should be budget for salaries of household staff?
We advise clients on pay packages
The old saying goes, "You get what you pay for." Compensation for domestic staffing employees can skyrocket for candidates who are at the top in their field. They are, essentially, like professional athletes in the sense that they are in demand.
To add a top-notch candidate to your team, remember that the level of responsibilities has much to do with the remuneration. So, suppose the private chef must plan dinner parties and other events. In that case, the candidate will need special skills beyond just menu planning. In short, overseeing the meals and providing 5-star service in a grand estate could cost a family more than $250,000 annually.

We can make a placement anywhere in the world. Popular cities in North America include Palm Beach, Miami, Los Angeles, NYC, San Francisco, and Chicago. Still, we also headhunt in South America, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.
We recently placed a private chef and several European domestic couples in Dubai. Our services are more comprehensive than those of domestic staff because our office also has a dedicated department for lifestyle management consulting.
