  • The Uncommon Business
  • Minneapolis, MN

Job Description

This is NOT a typical housekeeping job

This role is for someone who runs a home like an operator , not someone waiting for a checklist.

We’re looking for a high-trust, proactive House Manager / Personal Assistant who naturally:

  • Sees what needs to be done
  • Takes ownership without being asked
  • Creates calm, structure, and flow in a fast-moving household

If you love bringing order to busy environments and take pride in things being done right , keep reading.

The Environment

You’ll support a high-performing entrepreneur and her partner in a private home with:

  • Pets
  • Real meals (not takeout)
  • Regular hosting + occasional travel
  • A fast pace that requires structure behind the scenes

This is a high-trust role with real responsibility —discretion, reliability, and initiative are non-negotiable.

What a Great Week Looks Like

Without needing direction, you:

  • Reset the home daily (laundry, sheets, tidy spaces)
  • Prep meals for the week so food is ready without thinking
  • Handle groceries, errands, and returns efficiently
  • Keep supplies stocked before they run out
  • Turn over an Airbnb or prep for guests seamlessly
  • Support last-minute needs without stress when plans shift
What You’ll Own

Household Operations

  • Laundry, linens, tidying, organization
  • Pantry + supply management
  • Pet care routines

Kitchen & Meal Prep

  • Weekly prep (chopping, assembling, organizing)
  • Keeping the fridge functional and intentional
  • Maintaining a clean, efficient kitchen

Errands & Logistics

  • Groceries, pickups, returns
  • Vendor coordination (as needed)
  • Anticipating needs before they become problems

Home Readiness

  • Guest prep + hosting support
  • Airbnb turnovers
  • Keeping the home “always ready”

Light Personal & Event Support

  • Occasional errands for events
  • Travel prep + one-off support tasks
Who This Is Perfect For

You’ll thrive here if:

  • You naturally take initiative (you don’t wait to be told)
  • You find satisfaction in creating order and calm
  • You enjoy cooking and organizing food systems
  • You’re detail-oriented but fast-moving
  • You communicate clearly and proactively
  • You value trust, discretion, and consistency
This Role Is NOT a Fit If:

  • You prefer being given step-by-step instructions
  • You wait for direction instead of anticipating needs
  • You’re looking for a traditional cleaning-only role

✅ What Success Looks Like

  • The home runs smoothly without oversight
  • Meals are prepped and the kitchen stays organized
  • Errands are handled ahead of time
  • Guests and events feel effortless
  • Nothing “falls through the cracks”

⏰ Schedule

  • 25–30 hours/week (daytime, flexible)
  • Occasional evenings/weekends (with notice)
  • Potential to grow over time

Compensation
  • $25–$40/hour (based on experience)
  • W2 employee
