House Manager - Miami, United States - Lakhani Household

Description

Opportunity in Central Brickell, Miami:
Supportive Live-in Household Manager Role Available

Further details on this position:

A man in his mid-30s, working as a professional in the hotel development industry, is looking for an individual with an eye for detail, a health-oriented lifestyle, and a systems/process-oriented perspective to fill the open position of Household Manager.

This man lives with a significant physical disability, which he has had since birth, and which has progressed to the level that he now needs to have a caregiver available 24/7 to assist him with nearly all physical tasks of daily living, such as bed mobility, bathing, grooming, dressing, meal preparation, and feeding.

Nonetheless, he is a very autonomous individual who selects and directs his own caregiving team, and these tasks are completed in accordance with his own standards and preferences.

Prior caregiving experience is not required for this role, and a willingness to learn and adapt is crucial.

When it comes to his professional pursuits, he is incredibly disciplined and rigorously pursues growth in a sustainable manner.

He graduated salutatorian in his high school class of 700 students, and earned 2 bachelors degrees within 4 years at an Ivy League University.

He has worked at 2 of the 5 largest technology companies in the world, served as COO for multiple small businesses, and managed a portfolio of commercial & residential real estate.

He values efficiency, innovation, and a supportive work environment.

Balance is important to him, as he also believes in proper rest, relaxation, and self-care, for both himself and his team.

He generally wakes up at 5 AM, is in bed by 9:30 PM, mostly eats organic & home-cooked food (he avoids pork), and exercises for 1-2 hours daily.

Having previously pursued public speaking and "stand up" comedy as hobbies, he is known for his eloquence as well as his dry sense of humor.

These days, he tends to prefer quieter environments that are conducive to quality conversation, and also enjoys exploring music and art experiences.

He is rather pragmatic and mínimalistic when it comes to spending/consumption, and tends to be generous with those close to him.

He has residences in the Midwest and the Pacific Northwest, where he often travels during the summers.

He doesn't travel much otherwise, given the extent of his physical needs, and because he feels best in a warm climate with a modern, wheelchair friendly environment.

He is fortunate to be well-traveled from his younger years, when it was logístically simpler, and South Florida is his home for the foreseeable future, as he enjoys warm temperatures (the thermostat is generally set to 75° during the day, and 72° at night).
