Shire & Wold works with UHNW individuals, private estates, and family offices to bring structure and operational clarity to complex private households. Whether you are building a team from scratch, managing a period of change, or simply looking to raise standards across your home, we provide the expertise and support to get it right.
Private households often evolve quickly. What begins as a small, trusted team can become complex without structure.
You may recognise this if:
At this stage, recruitment alone is not enough. Structure must come first.
We build the framework that allows your household to operate efficiently, professionally, and without friction.
Assessment of your household operations, identifying gaps and inefficiencies.
Clear advice on the roles required, from House Manager to full household teams.
Defined, realistic job briefs aligned to your home and lifestyle.
Clarity around routines, reporting lines, and service standards.
Sourcing exceptional individuals once the right structure is in place.
Support through implementation and onboarding to ensure long-term success.
Understanding your household, lifestyle, and challenges.
Identifying gaps and building the right structure.
Defining roles, priorities, and service standards.
Supporting recruitment, onboarding and ongoing support.
We do not apply corporate models to private households. We understand the nuance, discretion, and expectations of UHNW environments and build solutions that reflect real life, not theory.
