Hiring a Butler

What is a Butler?

The butler role is incredibly varied and exact requirements depend on the needs of each private household. Responsibilities are varied and far-reaching, but can include silver service; valet; care of silver and fine china; wardrobe management; travel packing; meeting and greeting of residents and guests; training and management of other staff; driving and in some cases, travelling with the principal and their family.

A butler may be male or female, and will possess excellent communication skills and a positive attitude to a demanding workload. They will have a good understanding of what is required of them and will share the high standards of the household for appearances and service. It won’t only be the property that is immaculately presented: butlers for private households take their own professional appearance seriously at all times.
