GovernessPAButler One Eastern European Language

Educated Households is a high‑tier household staff agency based in London placing highly educated private staff with VIP & UHNW families in the Middle East and worldwide.

Our very prominent clients based out in Doha, Qatar are in need of a Governess/Personal Assistant/Butler to orchestrate the daily life of their 10‑year‑old daughter and to serve as an inspirational chaperone to the little girl. The candidate will also need to support the mother and the child as a PA & Butler.

This VVIP family has a stunning residence situated nearby the beach in Doha and will provide the Governess/PA/Butler with a bedroom with ensuite on a separate floor of the main residence and access to the family swimming pool.

The Governess/PA/Butler should be endowed with emotional intelligence to address all facets of the child's daily & social life and be involved in pedagogical matters surrounding academia. The ultimate Governess/PA/Butler will exude natural authority whilst not being domineering, instilling confidence in the child. With this in mind the Governess/PA/Butler will use diplomacy and flair to keep the child engaged, entertained and content.

This pivotal role includes working collaboratively in a fully staffed household: a House Manager and a Babysitter are already in place. The live‑in Governess/PA/Butler will also work in sync with the parents and with other private staff handpicked by the family.

The role is a 6‑day‑per‑week position. Down‑time (most likely 3 days over the 6‑day weekly schedule) will be granted to offset this schedule.

While travelling (not in residence) the Governess will be expected to share a room with the little girl.

Speaking one Eastern European language will be greatly advantageous.

Adhering to confidentiality is non‑negotiable in this role as the Principals value their privacy.
