Travelling Female Laundress – Dubai / EU

We are delighted to be working with a returning UHNW British client to recruit a meticulous and highly experienced Travelling Private Laundress. The Principal’s primary residence is in Emirates Hills, Dubai; however, the family spends considerable time in the UK and Europe, particularly throughout the summer months, and requires a dedicated laundress who is equally at home caring for fine linens in a villa in Ibiza as they are in a London townhouse or a Dubai estate. This is an exceptional opportunity for a polished laundry and garment-care professional to join a dynamic, well-established private household at the very highest level.

Working alongside a professional household team, you will provide seamless, impeccable laundry and wardrobe management services to the Principals and their four children across multiple residences. You will be expected to work closely with the wider team to ensure the household runs with absolute precision and discretion.

You will be employed on a UAE contract, offering a tax-free salary. When based in Dubai, you will arrange your own accommodation; when travelling with the family or based in the UK or Europe, accommodation is fully provided. The family are currently based in the UK, moving to Ibiza for the summer, before returning to Dubai later in the year.

Candidates must hold a valid EU or UK passport.
