Overview
British American Household Staffing (BAHS) is seeking an experienced and intuitive Placement Specialist to join our close-knit, highly collaborative team. This is a fully remote role for someone who thrives with autonomy, understands the private service world from the inside out, and takes real pride in making thoughtful, long-term matches. We are looking for someone to start in January 2027.
This role is not entry-level and is not a fit for someone learning the domestic staffing space. To be considered, candidates must have at least 5 years of experience working in a private household and prior experience facilitating hires for principals and/or in an agency environment. This is non-negotiable. We are looking for someone who truly understands both our clients and our candidates because they have lived it.
At BAHS, Placement Specialists operate as trusted consultants. You will manage high-touch relationships, juggle multiple active searches, and represent the agency with discretion, warmth, and sound judgment.
Location
This is a fully remote, work-from-home role, and you must be available to work a flexible full-time schedule. Occasional availability during evenings or weekends is needed to support urgent client needs or to accommodate international time zones.
