The demand for high-profile domestic staffing agencies is at an all-time high. The team at the Celebrity Personal Assistant Network is a group of committed recruiters with first-hand experience working for high-net-worth individuals inside of estates and private jets.

What roles can your high-profile domestic staffing agency place?
There is virtually no limit to the roles we can assist you with. We can send qualified candidates in the following roles: house managers, estate managers, personal assistants, domestic couples, and chefs. In fact, if you need a housekeeper (aka maid) or nanny (or governess), we can also make that a top priority.
Our applicants come from a number of different backgrounds including service and hospitality, so clients that want to hire applicants for their estates will get a tried-and-true pairing with experience.

Are all domestic placement agencies equal?
No, certainly not. Our founder, Brian Daniel, understands staffing needs in a deep way because he has worked on both sides of the fence with clients and candidates. As a former estate manager to celebrities and wealthy families, he understands the positions firsthand.
Not hiring a household staffing agency with this kind of experience puts a client at a disadvantage. It would be like hiring a General to lead a war when they have never even fired a gun.
We want clients to stay with us long term, so when we conduct a search for a candidate, we are completely transparent during the entire process; so we tell you what you need to know, not what you want to hear.

What fees do estate staffing agencies charge?
When we are contacted by a family to find nannies, estate managers, housekeepers or other domestic staffing positions, we have a thorough conversation with the VIP to understand what they need. Once the expectations are clear, we can discuss the fees and how long it would likely take to fill the role.
We are a retained-search firm, which is unusual for a private staff agency. What that means is our headhunters are specialists, not generalists. Our process is all about quality, not quantity. So we would rather send you three to five outstanding candidates instead of 10 mediocre ones.

What if domestic staffing agencies near me aren't amazing?
If we are not near you, then it's ok because we can serve clients anywhere in the world. We frequently work throughout North America, Asia, Europe and the Middle East; so, we're not confined to the United States. We have a global network of domestic staff with strong relationships. Because of our strong commitment to support a client until the ideal placement is made, our reputation is second to none.
Candidates we interview know that our recruiters are professional and that we take their previous employer's security seriously. Because of our quality services, candidates put their trust in us. When we post a job, clients can depend on us for concierge service; so, when other domestic staffing agencies are closed after 5:00 pm and on weekends, we go the extra mile with our service.

What kind of guarantee does your agency have for staff?
We encourage clients to be as upfront as possible about the kind of candidates they are looking for. We can be of better assistance and build stronger relationships when we are armed with that information. If we know exactly what you want, then our search won't waste any time interviewing candidates that aren't a fit.
If, for some unlikely reason, that our household staffing recommendation doesn't work out within the first 90 days, then we will make arrangements for another candidate to replace the other hire. That step, though, is uncommon as our strong commitment to service in our search allows us to make a great match.

What is your screening process like for domestic staff?
Great question. We take security and your safety very seriously. In addition to verifying a candidate's former employment, we can also do a series of background checks, which include but are not limited to criminal history, social security check, and a driving record review. We can even conduct personality tests as well. In short, we take out positions are recruiters very seriously so that we can place the best household staff. To learn more about our screening process, please visit the Background Checks page of our website.
How does your agency know that clients and candidates are a match?
This is where our executive team comes into play. Because of our professional experience in the domestic staffing industry, our intuition also plays a factor when we recommend applicants. In addition to the hard skills of a candidate (i.e., using estate management software, prowess with Microsoft Office, and knowledge of car fleet management), we also take a priority look at soft skills: Time management, teamwork, problem solving and communication style.
So beyond matching the hard skills of the position, which are outlined in the job description, the interview process is very informative as we take copious notes and make careful observations so that we can make the right placement. We guarantee a thorough process 100% of the time.

Why is household staffing an art and a science?
When you call our agency to hire assistants, chefs, butlers, or domestic couples for your household, our screening process accounts for "intent" of the candidate. We interview the applicants to learn if they are authentic or opportunistic. Beyond just looking for hard and soft skills, we want to know about the career goals of the applicants. That way a perfect pairing can be made. These priority services are very uncommon in the domestic staffing industry. Our process takes more time, but quality is more important than quantity.
Is your high-profile domestic staffing agency qualified?
Our founder has worked with Forbes list families, royalty, Hollywood A-listers and American aristocracy as a PA and estate manager. He has firsthand experience inside estates and mansions.
No headhunter or recruiter anywhere in the world has such experience in a household. That's what separates our service from other household staffing firms. So, whether you want to hire staff in America, Asia, Europe or the Middle East, Brian Daniel takes it personally, and quality is paramount.
