A young, sophisticated, and fast-paced private family is seeking a top-tier Estate Head of Service & Housekeeping to deliver five-star hospitality, elevated household service, and refined support across their Miami residence and Hamptons summer home. The role is based primarily in Miami, with approximately two summer months in Amagansett, where team housing is provided. The schedule follows a five-day structure with Mondays and Tuesdays off and includes weekend boating support.

The Estate Head of Service & Housekeeping will play a key role in maintaining a pristine, welcoming environment for the family, their children, and guests.

This position is best suited for a professional who is poised yet approachable, detail-oriented but not rigid, and adept in both estate and yacht service . Someone who maintains composure, supports the team, and appreciates a fulfilling life outside of work will thrive here.

This is an exceptional opportunity to join a service-oriented team supporting a family that values professionalism, adaptability, understated elegance, and positive contributions to a cohesive staff.
