We are looking for someone who can bring a sense of calm, order, and momentum to the details of everyday life. From keeping track of everyone's things and preparing for travel to staying ahead of household needs and helping us think through what is coming next, we want someone who makes family life feel a little easier.This is a hands-on household operations role, with the majority of the work centered around organization, logistics, and making sure things are ready before we need them. We need someone who can help us manage the moving pieces of our weekly and monthly life, keep task lists moving, and take ownership of the details that are easy to overlook when life gets busy.Most importantly, we are looking for someone who will become a trusted part of our family's rhythm. Someone who notices what needs to happen, takes care of it, and helps our home feel organized, prepared, and ready for whatever the week brings.Who You Are / What We're Looking ForYou are the kind of person who naturally notices the details. You see the overflowing closet and think about how to make it work better. You know the family is leaving Friday and start thinking about what needs to be packed on Wednesday. You notice the household supplies are running low before anyone has to ask. You like being the person who quietly makes things happen.You are organized, resourceful, proactive, and comfortable taking ownership. You can keep an eye on the bigger picture while handling the practical details, from weekly and monthly task lists to organizing children's belongings, preparing for travel, coordinating errands, and keeping the home ready for what comes next. You do not need every task spelled out for you, and you take pride in following things through.You are looking for a role where you can genuinely make a difference in a family's day-to-day life. You bring good judgment, warmth, reliability, and a calm presence, and you enjoy being the person a family can count on to keep things moving.Key ResponsibilitiesHousehold Management & OrganizationCreate and maintain household organization systemsOrganize children's clothing, toys, gear, school items, and household belongingsDaily resets and prep home for cleanersLight tidying (surfaces, vacuum high-traffic areas, occasional dishes)Packing/unpacking for travel (including car)Seasonal swaps (clothing, décor, bedding)Prepare and coordinate donation & resale drop-offsEvent/holiday/travel/guest prepIndoor plant careChange batteries, light bulbs, etc.Administrative & Personal Assistant SupportManage calendar and household logistics (including household schedules)Comfort making calls and sending emails on behalf of familyManage family forms/paperwork, including:Getting forms from doctor for school, camp, and other activitiesSubmitting insurance reimbursement paperworkReceipt/budget tracking for expenses incurred as house managerEvent and appointment coordination as neededTravel planning and logistics as neededAssist with payrollInventory & ErrandsRestock pantry/fridge/household suppliesManage running household supply listsManage household orders and subscriptions (Amazon/Instacart)Grocery shopping as neededReturns, dry cleaning, gift shoppingMail and package handlingBreakdown boxesSpecial ProjectsRefresh entry, keeping dining table and countertops clearEnsure cleaners conduct occasional deep cleans (fridge, oven, baseboards)Clean humidifiers/air purifiersVehicle ManagementSchedule maintenanceFueling/cleaning/organizing vehiclesTrack registration/insuranceVendor OversightOversee cleaners/contractors/handymenResearch/coordinate repairs and quotesHow to ApplyPlease submit a short intro letter, your updated resume, and 3 professional references with contact information.This role requires a background check.When you apply with Sage Haus, you'll also be added to our candidate community email list so we can share hiring updates, resources, and opportunities.
