The Opportunity

A UHNW Principal is hiring a Turkish-speaking Housekeeper for his new private residence in Miami. The role begins as a setup hire ahead of the Principal's full move-in towards the end of 2026, then settles into maintaining the residence to immaculate standards day-to-day. The household is intentionally small and service-led. There is no butler. Every Housekeeper is service-capable: cleaning, laundry, wardrobe care, light hosting, and informal service all sit within the role. This is one of three Housekeeper positions opening in the same residence and reports to the House Manager on site.

About the Principal

The Principal is a Turkish-speaking, single ultra-high-net-worth individual with active business interests and a multi-residence portfolio. Miami will become the primary residence from late 2026, with travel back and forth before the full move-in. The Principal travels frequently and unpredictably; the residence must be ready to host or to sit quietly in equal measure, depending on the week.

The household team is small for a private residence at this level: a House Manager, three Housekeepers (this role is for one of three openings), a private chef, and a driver. The Housekeepers are service-capable. They clean, maintain, and serve. The Principal has been clear that he wants a hospitality-trained, service-led team rather than a formal butler structure. A small dog lives at the residence.

The reporting line for the Housekeeper is to the House Manager on site, who in turn reports to the Global House Manager overseeing the wider multi-residence portfolio.

Why this role

This is a setup hire. You will help bring a new private residence to life: working alongside the House Manager and Global House Manager to establish housekeeping standards, set up wardrobes and linen cupboards, learn the Principal's preferences, source dry cleaners and external service providers, and embed the rhythms of the house from a blank canvas. The standards you build in the first six months will define how the residence runs for years.

Possible travel during the setup phase to support the Principal at other residences or hotels. For a Housekeeper who has worked in established households for years and wants the chance to build one properly from day one, this is genuinely different from the typical brief. It is closer to opening a new luxury hotel property than to taking over an existing residence.

Key Responsibilities

Housekeeping and presentation

• Maintain the residence to immaculate private household standards through daily cleaning, regular deep cleans, and seasonal projects across bedrooms, bathrooms, living areas, kitchens, guest spaces, and back-of-house.
• Care for fine surfaces, delicate materials, artwork, antiques, fabrics, and luxury finishes with appropriate technique and attention.
• Keep storage, cupboards, pantries, and household supplies organised, well presented, and consistently stocked. Monitor inventory and flag reorders to the House Manager.
• Conduct daily walk-throughs of the rooms you cover, refreshing as needed so the residence is always ready for use.

Laundry, wardrobe, and linen care

• Manage laundry, ironing, steaming, and folding to a high standard. Care for delicate fabrics, luxury garments, linens, towels, and guest items with appropriate processes for each material.
• Support wardrobe organisation, seasonal rotation, packing, and unpacking when the Principal travels. Maintain wardrobes in order at all times so the Principal can pack or dress without finding anything out of place.
• Liaise with trusted dry cleaners and external service providers as needed. Build relationships with reliable local Miami suppliers where they do not yet exist.
• Maintain linen cupboards and laundry areas in excellent order.

Service and household support

• Step in to serve drinks, refreshments, and light food when the Principal or guests are in residence. The team works without a butler; everyone is service-capable and crosses between cleaning and service without changing posture.
• Assist with guest arrivals, room preparation, turn-down service, and informal hosting.
• Respond to requests promptly, calmly, and professionally. Maintain a warm, discreet presence in the home.

Household support and the resident dog

• Run occasional errands and receive deliveries.
• Help care for the resident small dog day-to-day in coordination with the wider team.
• Communicate clearly with the House Manager and wider household team.

Requirements

Must-haves

• Proven experience already as a Housekeeper in a UHNW or HNW private residence, luxury hotel, yacht, villa, or comparable high-end environment. This is not a step-up role; the Principal is hiring for confirmed housekeeping experience.
• Fluent Turkish and English, written and verbal. Both are non-negotiable for this household. 
• Legally authorised to work in the United States.
• Excellent housekeeping standards with strong attention to detail. You take real pride in presentation, in caring for materials properly, and in noticing what others miss.
• Strong laundry, ironing, and wardrobe care skills. You understand how to handle delicate fabrics, luxury garments, and fine linens.
• Service-capable. You are comfortable stepping in to serve drinks, refreshments, and light food when the Principal or guests are in residence. This household has no butler; the Housekeepers carry service as part of the role.
• Comfortable with pets (a small dog in residence) and flexible with hours when the Principal is in residence or hosting.
• Discreet, polished, and professional at all times.

Strong advantage

• Setup or new-residence opening experience.
• Yacht interior or stewardess background with strong service standards. Yacht stewardesses transitioning to land are particularly well-suited to this role: laundry discipline, service across the cleaning and hosting boundary, and comfort with high-trust principals all transfer directly.
• Strong local Miami knowledge: trusted dry cleaners, household suppliers, and the rhythm of South Florida.
• Comfortable in a small, close-knit household team where roles overlap deliberately.
• Knowledge of luxury fabrics, wardrobe care, table presentation, flower care, or informal service patterns.

Working in this household

The day-to-day in a UHNW Miami private residence with a single Principal and unpredictable travel runs in two modes. When the Principal is in residence, the household runs at full pace: meals prepared, rooms refreshed throughout the day, guests received, the small dog cared for. When the Principal is away, which can be weeks at a time, the household shifts to maintenance and project mode: deep cleaning, wardrobe rotation, supplier reviews, restocking, and preparing the residence for return. Staff take holiday during these quieter windows; the schedule is structured around the Principal's rhythm rather than a fixed week.

The cultural register is service-capable rather than formal. The Principal does not want a butler. He values calm, consistent, intelligent staff who can move between cleaning a room, serving a drink, walking the dog, and preparing a wardrobe without changing posture. Housekeepers from luxury hospitality, yacht interiors, or serviced residences typically settle into this register quickly.

Practical Information

• Contract: Full-time, permanent.
• Start: Immediate. Setup phase ahead of the Principal's full move-in towards the end of 2026, with travel possible during this period.
• Reporting to: House Manager (on site).
• Working pattern: Flexible around the Principal's unpredictable travel. Staff take holiday when the Principal is away.
• Languages: Fluent Turkish and English required.
• Travel: Occasional travel with the Principal across other residences and hotels.
• Pet: Small dog in residence.
• Live-in or live-out: live-in accommodation may be considered for the right candidate; live-out is equally welcome.
• Package: $65,000 to $90,000 gross per annum, dependent on experience, plus benefits.
• One of three Housekeeper positions opening for this residence.

Application Process

Applications are managed through Oplu by Firat Bay, Co-Managing Director. All applications are held in strict confidence. The Principal's identity is disclosed at shortlist stage, subject to a Non-Disclosure Agreement.

Please note: due to the high volume of applications we receive, we are only able to contact candidates who are successfully shortlisted. If you have not heard from us within 14 days of submitting your application, please assume that you have not been successful on this occasion.

The Opportunity

A UHNW Principal is hiring a Turkish-speaking House Manager to lead a new private residence in Miami. The role begins as a setup hire ahead of the Principal's full move-in towards the end of 2026, then becomes the on-site authority for the day-to-day running of the residence and the household team. This is one of the most senior household management roles available in South Florida this year, and it reports directly to the Global House Manager within a multi-residence portfolio. The household is intentionally small, service-led, and built around a single Principal who values discretion, consistency, and quiet excellence.

About the Principal

The Principal is a Turkish-speaking, single ultra-high-net-worth individual with active business interests across multiple sectors and a multi-residence portfolio spanning more than one geography. Miami will become the primary residence from late 2026, with travel back and forth in the months before move-in. The Principal travels frequently and unpredictably; the residence must always be ready to host or to sit dormant in equal measure, depending on the week.

The household team is intentionally small for a residence at this level: a House Manager (this role), three Housekeepers, a private chef, and a driver. The Housekeepers are service-capable. They clean, maintain, and serve. The Principal is not interested in formal service theatre and has been clear that he wants the team to step in across all forms of household support: housekeeping, laundry and wardrobe care, informal service, guest preparation, and light hosting. A small dog lives at the residence.

The reporting line above this role is the Global House Manager, who travels in to Miami from time to time and otherwise oversees the wider multi-residence portfolio remotely. The House Manager in Miami is the senior on-site presence and the cultural anchor for the team.

Why this role

This is a rare setup hire. You will help bring a new private residence to life from a blank canvas: standards, household manuals, the supplier list, household systems, daily and weekly routines, inventories, and the rhythm of the house. The hard work of the first six months will define how the residence runs for years.

You will work directly with the Global House Manager during the setup phase, with possible travel to support the Principal at other residences and hotels. For a House Manager who has run an established household for years and wants the chance to build one properly from day one, this is genuinely different from the typical brief. It is closer in shape to opening a new hotel property than to taking over an existing residence.

Key Responsibilities

Residence setup and household operations

•  
• Set up the residence ahead of the Principal's full move-in: define household standards, build the household manual, source and onboard suppliers, design household systems, embed routines, and complete the inventory.  
• Once occupied, run day-to-day operations across the residence. Walk the home daily, anticipate needs, and resolve issues before they surface to the Principal.  
• Maintain household manuals, contact lists, supplier files, and operational notes so that the residence runs even when you are not on site.  
• Manage stock levels, purchasing, and basic budgets across cleaning supplies, pantry, flowers, household consumables, and guest amenities.

Leading a small, service-led team

•  
• Lead the on-site team of three Housekeepers, the private chef, and the driver. Hold standards, communicate expectations clearly, and protect the culture of the household.  
• Coordinate daily tasks across housekeeping, laundry, wardrobe care, household organisation, and informal service. The Housekeepers serve drinks, refresh rooms, and assist with guest arrivals; everyone in the team is service-capable.  
• Liaise with the Global House Manager on cross-residence coordination, and reporting upward to the Principal where required.

Vendors, maintenance, and contractors

•  
• Coordinate vendors, contractors, deliveries, and maintenance for a luxury high-rise residence. Build a trusted Miami supplier network from scratch where one does not exist.  
• Report and follow up on repairs, service visits, and household maintenance, with clear records and clean handoffs.  
• Manage building-level relationships (concierge, building management, security) where the residence sits within a condominium structure.

The Principal's day and presentation

•  
• Ensure the residence is prepared according to the Principal's preferences. Given his unpredictable travel pattern, the residence must be ready to host or to receive him at short notice.  
• Lead the team in receiving guests with appropriate discretion and warmth, in the absence of formal butler structure.  
• Care for the resident small dog day-to-day in coordination with the team.

Requirements

Must-haves

•  
• Five plus years already in a House Manager, Executive Housekeeper, Residence Manager, Household Director, or equivalent senior household role within a UHNW or HNW private residence. This is not a step-up role; the Principal is hiring for confirmed experience.  
• Fluent Turkish and English, written and verbal. Both are non-negotiable for this household.  
• Legally authorised to work in the United States.  
• Hands-on operational instincts. You walk the residence, check rooms, supervise staff, and step in practically. This is not a desk-based role and the team is small enough that any House Manager who manages from the office will not work here.  
• Demonstrable experience supervising a small household team and coordinating vendors, contractors, stock, and basic budgets.  
• Calm and discreet under pressure. The residence must look effortless even when the Principal is travelling, returning at short notice, or hosting unexpectedly.  
• Comfortable communicating clearly with a Global House Manager based outside the residence, including by phone and written brief.

Strong advantage

•  
• Setup or new-residence opening experience: another private residence opening, a luxury hotel pre-opening, a yacht commissioning, or a serviced residence launch.  
• Strong local knowledge of Miami and South Florida: trusted suppliers, contractors, building management contacts, neighbourhoods, household logistics, and the rhythm of the city.  
• Background in luxury hospitality, yacht interiors, or serviced residences alongside private household experience. Hospitality-trained candidates are well-suited to the service-led, no-butler structure of this household.  
• Comfortable working in a small household where the team is intentionally lean and roles overlap deliberately.  
• Comfortable with pets (a small dog in residence).

Working in this household

The day-to-day in a UHNW Miami private residence with a single Principal and unpredictable travel sits between two patterns. When the Principal is in residence, the household runs at full pace: meals prepared, schedules anticipated, guests received, the small dog cared for, every surface refreshed. When the Principal is away, which can be weeks at a time, the household shifts to maintenance mode: deep cleaning, project work, supplier reviews, and preparing for the next return. Staff take holiday during these quieter windows; the household team is structured around the Principal's rhythm rather than a fixed week.

The cultural register is service-capable rather than formal. The Principal does not want a butler. He values calm, consistent, intelligent staff who can move between cleaning a room, serving a drink, receiving a guest, and walking the dog without changing posture. The House Manager sets the tone for this and protects it as the team grows.

Practical Information

•  
• Contract: Full-time, permanent.  
• Start: Immediate. Setup phase ahead of the Principal's full move-in towards the end of 2026, with travel possible during this period.  
• Reporting to: Global House Manager (off-site, with occasional on-site visits to Miami).  
• Working pattern: Flexible around the Principal's unpredictable travel. Staff take holiday when the Principal is away.  
• Languages: Fluent Turkish and English required.  
• Travel: Occasional travel with the Principal across other residences and hotels during the setup phase and beyond.  
• Pet: Small dog in residence.  
• Live-in or live-out: live-in accommodation may be considered for the right candidate; live-out is equally welcome.  
• Package: $100,000 to $150,000 gross per annum, dependent on experience, plus benefits and discretionary bonus.

This position will focus primarily on the care of two young children, a preschool-aged child and a toddler, while Mum remains primarily focused on the newborn. The family is looking for a professional nanny with strong early years experience who can confidently manage the children’s routines, support their development, and create a calm, nurturing, and engaging environment.

A strong Turkish speaker is essential, as the family would like the children to be immersed in Turkish at home alongside their English-speaking education.

This is a role for someone who is flexible, energetic, and comfortable working longer days. In addition to the day-to-day care of the children in London, the nanny will travel with the family during school holidays, primarily to the USA and Türkiye.
