Irving Scott in 2020

At Irving Scott we are delighted that our discerning clients are looking forward to a new decade by our side. They are confident in our reliable domestic staffing agency to provide comprehensive, confidential and competent advice throughout the whole hiring process. We build long-standing relationships with our clients, providing them with high-quality housekeepers, butlers, nannies, chauffeurs and private staff for their families and homes across the world. 

Our name derives from the surnames of the founding partners. Anecdotally, though, each letter stands for one of our core characteristics. 

Identifying the role

We know that a key step in recruiting the right person for the right position is to clearly identify the role. We listen to each client’s requirements and develop a checklist of desired skills for the core tasks to be performed by the new member of the household. Likewise we select and prepare candidates for the position so that they are aware of the responsibilities they will be expected to assume.

Recruitment

We are a boutique domestic staffing agency who successfully recruits personnel for households all over London and the world. Our reputation for having the right psychology to truly match the candidate with the position has received extensive press recognition.  

VIP treatment

Every client and every candidate on our portfolio counts, each one is very important to Irving Scott. However, our peers recognise our skill at paying special attention to professionals that, due to their achievements or fame, enjoy VIP treatment. For example, our specialized VIP flight assistant recruitment service is among the best in the world. 

Individuals

We know that every client and candidate is an individual with personality, history and aspirations. By combining our knowledge of the skills our candidates possess with the wishes of our clients, Irving Scott has created a cutting-edge technique that means every individual has the chance to meet their full potential. Happy candidates mean happy households mean happy clients!

Nannies

One of our most popular services is recruiting nannies. Providing these indispensable members to our clients’ families is the jewel in the crown of our domestic service recruitment portfolio. We are proud of our success and delighted with the successful long-term tenure of our placements. We’ve even been known to recruit nannies for adults!

Global 

Irving Scott provides domestic personnel to clients across the globe. We have in-depth knowledge of Saudia Arabia, United Arab Emirates, St Tropez, Monaco, IbizaCosta del Sol, and many other exclusive destinations. 

Service

Professional domestic staff are proud to provide a service to their principals. Households requiring support personnel are dynamic environments offering various roles and expecting the best candidate for the position. At Irving Scott we extol the term “service” as it embraces everything we provide to our clients and what we expect our candidates to provide for them. 

Cosmopolitan or countryside

Irving Scott has in-depth knowledge of London and little escapes our notice in the thriving, multi-cultured and vibrant capital.  However, we are also experts in finding personnel to work in rural environments, both as live-in or as resident employees. The creative and modern method employed by owners of private stately homes to maintain their costly properties in the 21st century has led to an increase in sophisticated household management roles, accountancy and P.A. positions in these unique work environments. 

Orderly 

Recruiting new members of staff for private positions requires an orderly approach. Our thorough vetting service is the envy of our peers. We comprehensively prep our candidates with insight in their chosen role, be it a housekeeper, butler or nanny. We also make sure our clients know what mistakes to avoid when recruiting the right person for the right role. We are open, honest and fair with everyone: potential and current candidates, loyal and new clients, as well as with those who provide services that dovetail with ours.
