Overview

A growing family in the West Village of NYC, are seeking a full-time house manager/personal assistant. This is an existing role and the schedule will be 30-50 hours per week (with the potential for this to expand in due course, as their family grows). Some hours may be outside the typical 9am-5pm schedule but these will be primarily remote and kept at minimum.  Candidates will be able to work at least 2 days per week in a remote capacity each week, and the rest in-person. The family’s current primary residence is in NYC. However, they are also building another home in CO, and in due course there will be more for the candidate to do/manage as it pertains to this property.
