About Our Family

We are an active, high-functioning family based just outside of Austin, with a lifestyle that moves fast and a home that should feel effortless. Our household includes two kids in their early-to-mid elementary years, a beloved senior Pomeranian, and two parents with demanding schedules — one of whom travels frequently and one who manages an extensive social and professional calendar from home.

We already have wonderful support in place: a housekeeper who handles laundry and general tidiness on weekday afternoons and a meal prep chef who drops off prepared dinners weekly. What we are missing is the person who ties it all together and keeps it all moving.

We want our home to run like a hotel — consistently stocked, proactively managed, and guest‑ready at any moment. The ideal candidate notices what needs attention before being asked, builds systems that prevent issues from recurring, and ensures the home remains calm, organized, and functional at all times.

This is a long-term opportunity with real room to grow, particularly as we move into a multi-year new construction project and expand our household operations and entertaining.

Who You Are / What We're Looking For

You are a seasoned household or estate operations professional who takes pride in creating order, structure, and calm within a busy home. You are proactive, grounded, and highly discreet. You understand that working in a private home requires consistency, emotional maturity, and respect for privacy without exception.

You naturally notice what others overlook — supplies running low, a vendor task left incomplete, a system that could be improved — and you take action without needing direction. You think in systems, not tasks, and you are equally comfortable maintaining those systems day‑to‑day.

You are not looking to be a friend or a passive assistant — you are looking to be indispensable. You bring a steady presence, solve problems early, and help the household run smoothly and predictably. You are willing to be hands‑on while also managing higher‑level coordination, vendors, and planning.

Above all, you make the home feel easier to live in.

• Ensure the home runs smoothly day to day and feels consistently organized and guest-ready
• Proactively identify and resolve household needs before they become issues
• Create, maintain, and improve household systems and routines
• Perform daily resets and ensure order across common areas
• Maintain checklists for recurring household tasks and seasonal needs
• Identify gaps in home operations and implement practical solutions
