Outside of getting our crystal ball to work, there isn’t an easy way to predict the types of positions our team will be working on each month. Unfortunately, there is no “season” for Chefs, Personal Assistants, Household Managers and Estate Managers! On that note, we are currently experiencing a trend toward very part-time Personal Assistants and Chefs in addition to our great full-time and part-time positions that require 16 to 40 hours per week.
 
The clients seeking very part-time Personal Assistants range from previous clients who need extra help to new clients who have never hired a Personal Assistant. Currently, these jobs range from 8 to 15 hours per week.  The typical tasks include managing vendors, event planning, vehicle maintenance, computer tasks and errands, errands, errands!

The latest Chef positions are also tending to range from 8 to 15 hours per week. Many of our clients are looking for Chefs who will prepare a week’s worth of healthy meals over the course of one or two days and leave specific instructions for the execution of the meals. Another popular request we are receiving is for experts in vegan, spa and raw diets.

Many candidates make this trend work for them by seeking two or three part-time positions. Employers often have the flexibility to allow for this. We encourage candidates to keep this in mind and think about their own degree of flexibility in order to maximize their job possibilities. As always, most of our current jobs are posted on our web site and updated bi-weekly. So even if you are up in the middle of the night trying to get your own crystal ball to work, you can get an accurate picture of the jobs we are looking to fill.
