Guardians for Chateau, South West France.  Cica 60€ net.

You must speak French!  Based near Nimes.  The lady with 5 mature cats, is seldom at the house but all must always be immaculate. The cats need love and care as getting old now, so on medication.  Over an 8 hour day you will care for the garden daily with the 2 gardeners who come in roughly, twice a week, and there is a person there, who runs the property.  Security is paramount and some help in the house if needed.  Your references must reflect a similar role as domestic couple and be recent and contactable.

 

Your accommodation in the grounds has three bedrooms and two bathrooms so you are welcome to have pets but not who chase the cats!  IMPORTANT NOTE:  This is for professional guardians who have done a similar role before and NOT for those just looking for a home and low hours!  DO NOT APPLY IF NOT EXPERIENCED.  One of you must drive and there is a car there if you need one.

 

She keeps staff for years and is extremely nice and loves to travel so I feel this job is one for life.  The lady of this couple will not have as much to do and the gentleman must be fit and happy with outside work.

 

How to shine:

Speak French:

One of you drive:

Be experienced in housework as professionals.

Couple. S. France. Superb Accom €80.000 Eros gross.

Location: S. France

Position: Permanent

Salary: 80,000 Eros gross

Job Type : Domestic Staff

This young family would like two people of any nationality, but who must have some related experience, to live in a separate little villa in the grounds of their home in one of the prettiest villages above Nice.

No child care as the mother and her parents care for the new baby,  but there is a pretty Mexican hairless dog, the one with big ears!  A 5 day week with the odd Saturday morning.  Both ideally should drive but if only one, try me!

Perhaps you want to get off the yachts, or leave 5 star hotels, but whatever your experience it MUST have some relevance to private service in a luxury home.  Some basic French please and if a little Russian then great.

 

How to shine:

Be capable

Enjoy service
