We are recruiting two experienced Housekeepers for a large, high-end private residential estate located in the Blackburn area (BB2).
This is a varied and hands-on role requiring exceptional attention to detail, reliability, and a proactive approach. The estate includes a main residence and multiple outbuildings, with the owners living on-site and hosting regular guests. Working as part of a small team, you'll be responsible for maintaining a warm, clean, and welcoming environment at all times.
Key Responsibilities:
• Perform general cleaning duties, including dusting, sweeping, mopping, and vacuuming
• Clean and sanitise bathrooms, kitchens, and communal areas to high hygiene standards
• Change bed linens and towels; ensure all rooms are well-presented and guest-ready
• Carry out laundry tasks including washing, drying, folding, and ironing
• Maintain household and cleaning supply inventories; notify when stock is low
• Report any maintenance or safety issues promptly
• Provide excellent customer service to residents and guests, addressing any requests or concerns professionally
• Collaborate with other estate staff to ensure smooth day-to-day operations
• Occasionally assist with table settings, light cooking, and basic food prep during visits
What We're Looking For:
• Previous housekeeping or professional cleaning experience is essential
• Familiarity with hotel or private estate operations is a strong advantage
• Strong customer service skills with a discreet, polite, and professional manner
• Ability to work both independently and collaboratively as part of a close-knit team
• Highly organised with excellent attention to detail
• Basic cooking skills desirable but not essential
• Physically fit - the role involves lifting, bending, and standing for extended periods
• Due to the rural location, a driving licence and own vehicle is preferred
Working Hours & Benefits:
• 40 hours per week, with flexible rota across 7 days including weekends
• Overtime paid at £15 per hour
• Permanent, long-term role within a prestigious private estate
• Supportive team environment in a beautiful countryside setting
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a well-maintained, private household where you'll play an important role in ensuring a welcoming and well-presented environment for both the family and their guests.
