Estate Manager

An estate manager is essential for managing large, multi-property estates. They must be polished and professional, serving as the family's representative and primary point of contact between the principals and the outside world.

As a key leader, the estate manager oversees the domestic staff and manages various services across the estate's properties.

Benefits of having an Estate Manager

An estate manager focuses on the big picture, ensuring each property runs smoothly and efficiently. They lead by example, setting the tone for the household and managing staff to follow procedures. Acting as the head of the household, they oversee house managers and staff, while also becoming a trusted right hand to the principals. Estate managers may also handle real estate transactions, yacht staffing, liaising with aviation teams, and working with art curators from purchase to installation.
