About the job
High profile clients require a native French-speaking Nanny for their 3 children. This is an incredible opportunity for a nanny with few commitments who is comfortable with a fast-paced role involving global travel.
The household is incredibly warm, welcoming and appreciative. They are hoping to secure a long term nanny who will become a part of the family offering consistency as well as absolute discretion and confidentiality (Confidentiality Agreement required).
The role requires sporadic periods of travel and is open to candidates with the ability to accompany the family around the globe for up to several months at a time.
The ideal candidate will have proof of UK Settlement Status and should be looking for a long term role.
Hours during term time are expected to be fewer with busier periods required during the school holidays. Duties such as children’s diary and admin, wardrobe management and rotation, errand running and assisting the Principal’s PA are expected during term time as the children are all at school during the daytime.
Suitable applicants will be experienced nannies with a warm, open and relaxed approach. Travel includes travelling for the Principal’s work (worldwide) as well as frequent family holidays.
The role is open to applicants looking for a live-in or live-out position.
Additional household staff are in place to support you in your role, including housekeeping, chefs, PAs etc.
Those with a driving licence are preferred, however, this is not essential.
