        • Butler

        Butler

        English Nanny has extensive experience in selecting qualified butlers from Russia, Great Britain, France, and Italy for high-ranking families around the world.

        Butlers were in high demand in the rich, private estates of aristocrats throughout Eu-rope since the XI century. Duties included: selection and training of workers, household management, wine cellar management, bookkeeping and running er-rands for the head of the family.

        In pre-revolutionary Russia, the butler (senior footman) was an important figure in noble estates, serving as the Manager of the entire country estate.

        Modern butlers

        Since the 80-s, the demand for qualified butlers with experience in household man-agement and organisational skills has increased significantly. Wealthy families, in-cluding Russian ones, need effective management of their suburban real estates. At the same time, butlers are expected to meet quite strict requirements:

        • absolute honesty and punctuality;
        • higher education (preference is given to engineers and managers);
        • reliability and attention to detail;
        • tactfulness, complete adherence to etiquette and respect for any private matters of the family members he serves;
        • organisational skills;
        • knowledge of accounting basics;
        • experience in staff management and real estate;
        • dignity

        Most often, butlers are men who have extensive life experience and have received special training, as well as internships in large hotels, private-owned hotels and country real estates. In this case, positive references, certificates and diplomas will be a great plus when hiring such a candidate.

        Our recruitment agency conducts a strict selection of candidates for the position of butler. All of them have professional knowledge in this field and many years of ex-perience, as well as excellent written and verbal references. Do you need an effective household manager for your country house? We will find such a candidate for you!

        Typical duties of a butler

        The range of professional responsibilities of the senior manager is quite wide and can change depending on the preferences and requirements of his employer. A but-ler usually do the following:
