Step into a role where tradition meets warmth, and every detail matters. We’re looking for a dedicated Domestic Assistant to join the private household team at Goodwood House, ensuring that the residence and guest rooms are beautifully maintained, welcoming, and impeccably presented.

This is a rare opportunity to become part of a small, close-knit team in a friendly, well-established, and lively household. You’ll play a key role in creating a comfortable and elegant environment, anticipating the needs of the family and guests, and working collaboratively with others who take pride in what they do.

What We’re Looking For

We believe that passion and personality are just as important as experience. If you’re someone who thrives in a fast-paced, multi-faceted environment and enjoys making a difference through the little things, you’ll fit right in.

• Maintain the cleanliness and presentation of the house and guest rooms to the highest standards
• Change bed linen and towels, replenish amenities, and carry out deep cleaning and vacuuming as needed
• Respond to guest requests and accommodate special requirements with care and discretion

You’ll Bring

• A genuine passion for housekeeping and high standards
• A positive, friendly attitude and a proactive approach
• Excellent attention to detail and strong organisational skills
• Flexibility to work longer hours, including weekends and bank holidays
• A sense of fun and team spirit
• Experience in housekeeping and laundry is desirable, but not essential - we value enthusiasm and a willingness to learn. Due to our rural location, reliable transport is essential.

What You’ll Get

• Company pension with employer contributions
• Discounted products across the Goodwood Estate
• Free gym and health club membership
• Health cash plan
• A supportive and welcoming team environment
• Please note: Due to the nature of this role, extensive security checks will be required.
