Female Personal Butler – Dubai

We are delighted to be working with a returning UHNW client, recently relocated to the Emirates Hills, Dubai, to assist in hiring a full-time European Female Personal Butler/Lady’s Maid. This is a unique and rewarding opportunity for an experienced, highly polished professional to become the Principal’s most trusted daily support – her right-hand woman in every sense. The role sits at the heart of a well-established household team and demands an individual of the highest calibre: discreet, composed, and entirely devoted to delivering an exceptional personal service.

The successful candidate will work in close partnership with the Principal on a day-to-day basis, managing her personal needs with seamless efficiency. She will collaborate with a wider team of household professionals – including nannies, housekeepers, drivers, butlers, and a private chef – as well as the family’s existing PA, to ensure the household operates with precision and grace. Light housekeeping responsibilities are included, though a full housekeeping team is already in situ.

This is a live-out position based in Dubai. The role will involve travel with the Principal, and candidates must hold a valid EU or UK passport. You must already be based in Dubai.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as the Principal’s primary personal support, attending to her needs with discretion and anticipation
• Manage and maintain the Principal’s wardrobe to an immaculate standard, including garment care, seasonal organisation, and sourcing
• Oversee all packing and unpacking for travel, ensuring luggage is prepared to a meticulous standard
• Accompany the Principal on both domestic and international travel, providing seamless personal support throughout
• Carry out light housekeeping duties within the Principal’s private quarters, working in harmony with the full housekeeping team
• Run personal errands on behalf of the Principal, including shopping, collections, and bespoke requests
• Provide light PA support, including scheduling, appointment coordination, and correspondence, liaising closely with the family PA
• Assist with preparation for guests and ensure the Principal’s personal spaces are always immaculately presented
• Liaise with other household staff – nannies, housekeepers, drivers, butlers, and the chef – to ensure a cohesive and well-run household
• Manage personal shopping and gifting on behalf of the Principal, with a keen eye for quality and detail
• Maintain the highest levels of confidentiality and discretion at all times
• Respond with flexibility and composure to the changing needs of a dynamic UHNW household

Ideal Candidate

• Female, as requested by the client
• Previous experience in a senior personal butler or lady’s maid role within a UHNW or five-star luxury environment
• Impeccable wardrobe management skills, including knowledge of luxury brands, garment care, and personal shopping
• Experienced and confident travelling internationally with a Principal
• Holder of a valid EU or UK passport
• Polished, well-presented, and instinctively discreet
• Proactive and highly organised, with a calm and composed demeanor under pressure
• Comfortable working as part of a large household team while also operating independently
• Confident in providing light PA support alongside a dedicated family PA

Package

• Working schedule: 6 days a week
• Live-out position – no accommodation provided
• All travel expenses are covered when accompanying the Principal
