For Candidates

We represent a carefully selected network of exceptional housekeepers and household professionals placed within London’s most distinguished private residences. We look after the people in our network with the same care we bring to every household we work with — and we would welcome the opportunity to learn about your career.

A Different Kind of Agency

01 Your career, represented with genuine care.

Halcyon Household represents a small, carefully selected network of candidates — because representing fewer people means representing each one properly.

When you register with us, you are not entering a database. You are joining a carefully selected professional network, introduced personally by our founders to exceptional households across London.

We take the time to understand your career. Where you have been. What you have built. The kind of household where you will do your best work. We listen carefully before we make any introduction.

When the right position arises, we advocate for you fully — not as a name on a list, but as a professional we know and believe in. You will always be treated with honesty, respect, and discretion. Your details are never shared without your consent. Every conversation is confidential.

Our Standard

02 High standards, genuinely reciprocated.

The households we serve hold their staff to an exceptional standard. We look for candidates who understand what that means — not because they have been told to, but because it is simply who they are.

We are looking for experienced housekeepers with a proven record in high-standard private residences. Not those who have simply held the role, but those who have delivered at the highest level — and who take genuine pride in their work.

If that sounds like you, we would very much like to hear from you.

Professionalism and Discretion

You understand that a principal’s home is a private world. You conduct yourself with care and discretion at all times — and you do so naturally, without being reminded.

Attention to Detail

Your standards do not depend on supervision. You notice what others overlook. You care about the details because they matter to you — not because someone is watching.

Adaptability and Composure

Private households change quickly. You adapt without fuss. You work well with other staff, alongside your principals, and across shifting priorities — always calm, always composed.

Presentation and Communication

You represent the household you work within. Your presentation, your manner, and your communication reflect that responsibility.

Commitment to Longevity

You value stability. You approach each role with the intention of staying, growing, and building something lasting — not moving on at the first opportunity. So do we. We place for the long term.

What You Can Expect

03 In return, here is what you can expect from us.

You will always speak directly with a founder or a senior member of the Halcyon team — someone who understands your experience and the roles under consideration.

You will receive honest communication. If a role is not right for you, we will tell you why. We do not leave people without a response.

We respect your time. We respect your career. We represent you as we would wish to be represented ourselves.

Current Opportunities

04 Available positions.

Each search is handled with care and personal attention. Roles are filled discreetly and positions move quickly — we encourage you to register your interest and introduce yourself whether or not a specific vacancy is currently listed. The right opportunity is worth waiting for, and we would rather know you before it arises.

Current searches include roles for:

Full-time permanent housekeepers — Central and prime Central London
Live-in housekeepers — London and home counties
Temporary housekeepers — household transitions and cover
Housekeeper and household assistant roles — larger private residences and estate projects

Specific household details and salary information are shared privately following an initial conversation with our team. All enquiries are handled in complete confidence.

Introduce yourself

We review every introduction personally. If your experience and values reflect what Halcyon Household stands for, we would be glad to hear from you.

Please take a moment to introduce yourself below. One of our founders or a senior member of the Halcyon team will be in touch — personally, promptly, and with care. Every submission is treated with complete confidentiality.
