The job description reads: "A friendly, down-to-earth family based in Chobham is seeking a reliable and proactive full-time Housekeeper to support the smooth running of their home.

"The role is primarily focused on housekeeping and the consistent care of the family's two dogs."
It added: "The family are looking for someone practical, adaptable and easy to have around, who is happy to get on with what needs doing without close direction."
The family have four children aged 12 to 22. A car will be provided to the successful applicant for use during working hours.
Duties include the full housekeeping of the property, such as cleaning, tidying and maintaining an orderly home, along with laundry, ironing and wardrobe management. When the family are away, the housekeeper would be responsible for looking after the home and dogs.

The successful candidate would work with external contractors as required and carry out light gardening duties. Requirements for the position include prior experience working in a private household and the confidence to manage a home independently.
The family are seeking someone who is proactive, organised and able to use their initiative. Being comfortable around dogs and their daily care is essential, along with being flexible and reliable.
