Household staff for London homes.
Kensington Personnel is a private household staffing and training house with offices in London, Dubai and Marbella. From our London office, we place and train household staff for homes in London, the Cotswolds and Cheshire. Every candidate is met in person before you see a profile.
From London to the Cotswolds and Cheshire.
London
Townhouses, apartments and family homes across the capital, served from our London office. Permanent, temporary and rota placements, live-in and live-out.
The Cotswolds
Country houses and estates, where a role often means living in and working as part of a small team. Searches are run from London, and we travel to the house.
Cheshire
Family homes and estates in the north-west, served from London in the same way and to the same standard.
The wider United Kingdom
Elsewhere in the country the process does not change. Tell us where the house is.
For roles in the United Kingdom we verify each candidate’s identity and right to work before any introduction. Where your household is the employer, the legal check at the point of hiring is the household’s to make, and we will tell you what it involves.
The roles we place in London.
Nannies, housekeepers, butlers, household managers, private PAs, drivers and private chefs. Seven disciplines, each recruited to the same depth and held to one standard.
