Estate Management Home Watch Manager / Working Superintendent
An experienced and highly organised Estate Management Home Watch Manager / Working Superintendent is required to oversee the day-to-day care, security and presentation of a private residential estate. This is a hands-on position suited to someone who can combine practical maintenance skills with excellent organisation, discretion and a strong eye for detail. The successful candidate will take pride in maintaining high standards across the property, grounds and associated facilities, ensuring everything is safe, functional and well presented at all times.
Responsibilities will include carrying out regular inspections of the house, buildings, utilities, equipment and grounds; identifying and reporting defects; arranging and monitoring external contractors; and completing minor repairs and maintenance tasks where appropriate. You will coordinate scheduled servicing, statutory inspections and preventative maintenance, maintain accurate records, and respond promptly to alarms, faults and urgent issues. Duties may also include overseeing gardening, cleaning, waste management, deliveries, household supplies, security systems and access arrangements, as well as preparing the property for arrivals, departures and events. You will be expected to supervise staff and contractors on site, allocate tasks effectively and ensure that work is completed safely and to the required standard.
Applicants should have proven experience in estate, property, facilities or building management, ideally within a private household, luxury residence, hospitality environment or similarly high-specification setting. Practical knowledge of plumbing, electrical systems, heating, security and general building maintenance would be advantageous, together with experience managing contractors and compliance requirements. A proactive, reliable and flexible approach is essential, as is the ability to work independently while communicating professionally with household members, colleagues and service providers. You must be discreet, trustworthy, physically capable of carrying out practical duties, and willing to respond to occasional out-of-hours requirements. A full driving licence is desirable, and relevant trade, health and safety or facilities qualifications would be welcomed.
