About this role
*Location:* West Vancouver *Compensation:* $30?$35 per hour, depending on experience *Schedule:* 20?30 hours per week *Employment Type:* Part-time
*About Finch Hill*
Finch Hill is a founder-centric home base that hosts strategy days, offsites, retreats and working sessions for startup and scale-up leaders, while also serving as a primary family residence. It is a high-functioning household and an entrepreneurial hub where family life, community and hospitality merge.
The House Manager is first and foremost here to support the family and keep the household running smoothly ? creating calm, order and reliability at home so there is more bandwidth for health, work, family and quality time together.
*Why this role stands out*
This is not a typical residential job. It could be a great fit for:
An experienced house manager or household professional looking for meaningful part-time work with real ownership and flexibility.
A hungry, gritty early-career person with strong judgment and work ethic who wants to learn how high-performing founders and families operate.
A founder, builder or entrepreneur growing a venture who wants dependable part-time income while staying close to an ambitious community.
Finch Hill fully supports people building something of their own. The expectation is simple: do excellent work, communicate clearly and take real ownership of the role. When you eventually outgrow it, that is a success ? the only ask is that you help identify a suitable replacement and facilitate a smooth handoff.

Coordinate and oversee vendors, trades and service providers, and bring in professional cleaners for deep cleans and larger resets around events, guests and seasonal needs ? brief them, inspect their work and hold the quality bar.
Create and maintain simple systems, checklists and routines so the household runs predictably and efficiently.

Coordinate household calendars: appointments, wellness bookings, maintenance visits and family-related scheduling.
Support the family?s healthy living goals through grocery coordination, pantry organization, basic meal planning support and keeping the home set up for healthy routines.
Run household errands: groceries, pharmacy pickups, dry cleaning, returns and supply restocking.
Help plan and prepare for family-oriented events and small gatherings (birthdays, holidays, dinners) in a low-stress, thoughtful way.
*Founder and guest exposure (secondary benefit)*
Prepare the home for occasional founder offsites, working sessions and retreats.
Welcome guests in a warm, professional, discreet way that reflects the Finch Hill environment.
