Oversee preventative maintenance and improvement projects across the property.
Ensure the residence is fully prepared for principal and guest arrivals and impeccably maintained throughout their stays.
Develop and maintain household manuals, inventories, operating procedures and service standards.
Manage household supplies, purchasing and budgets where required.
Oversee household systems, security, vehicles and general property operations.
Anticipate the principals' needs, exercising excellent judgement, initiative and discretion at all times.
Create a calm, efficient and welcoming environment while maintaining absolute confidentiality.

The Ideal Candidate

Previous experience as an Estate Manager, House Manager or Executive Housekeeper within a UHNW private household.

Outstanding communication and interpersonal skills.
A long-term mindset and genuine commitment to building a lasting relationship with the family.
Comfortable working in a dynamic private household where no two days are the same.

The successful candidate will enjoy a varied, rewarding position within one of Aspen's most beautiful private residences, where excellence is appreciated and long-term commitment is encouraged.
