We are seeking a highly capable, hands-on Estate Manager to oversee a portfolio of four private residences across Northern California. This is a senior-level leadership opportunity for a professional who thrives in a dynamic, multi-property environment and leads through execution.
The ideal candidate is proactive, adaptable, and operationally strong, with a roll-with-the-punches mindset and a true sense of ownership.

Three residences in San Francisco

Regular travel between properties is required, along with flexibility to support the principals’ schedule. Occasional overnight stays (approximately once per quarter) will be required during principal travel.
The Estate Manager serves as the central point of oversight across all properties, ensuring consistency, efficiency, and excellence throughout the portfolio.

Strong leadership skills with the ability to manage staff and vendors effectively
Exceptionally detail-oriented with strong organizational systems

This is a high-functioning private household seeking a long-term Estate Manager who values ownership, discretion, and operational excellence. The principals are looking for a trusted professional who can take full responsibility for their homes and ensure everything runs seamlessly behind the scenes.
This role is ideal for an experienced Estate Manager who thrives in a multi-property environment and takes pride in full ownership of operations.
