Surrey, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire — the classic commuter belt. Big family homes, school runs, country living with London close by — ideal for private household staff. Many of our families split their week between town and country.
From the polo grounds of Windsor Great Park to the rolling hills of the Chilterns, the Home Counties are home to some of the UK's most prestigious private estates. Families here typically require staff who can manage large properties, formal entertaining, and the seamless coordination of country and London life.
Irving Scott regularly places butlers, housekeepers, estate managers, chauffeurs, and nannies across Surrey's Wentworth and Virginia Water, Berkshire's Ascot and Sunningdale, Buckinghamshire's Beaconsfield and Gerrards Cross, and Oxfordshire's Henley-on-Thames corridor.
We've placed estate couples, gardeners, and housekeepers from Surrey to Buckinghamshire. Many of these roles suit candidates who prefer country life over central London.
