Why Choose Morgan & Mallet For Your Butler Career?
We’ve Been Placing Butlers for Over 10 Years
Morgan & Mallet has placed butlers in London townhouses, Florida estates, Monaco penthouses, Dubai villas, and private islands worldwide. We understand what makes a successful butler placement: matching skills, personality, lifestyle expectations, and long-term career goals.
Our co-founder Morgan worked as a butler before entering household staff recruitment managing high-net-worth clients who expected perfection. That same standard applies to our butler placements.
We Focus on Long-Term Matches, Not Quick Placements
At Morgan & Mallet, we don’t rush. We’ve found that butler placements need thought, personality fit, family culture, lifestyle expectations, and long-term compatibility.
We’ve seen butlers stay with families for 5, 10, even 20+ years. Those placements succeed because we take time to ensure the fit is right from the start.
We Have Exclusive Access to UHNW Families Worldwide
Our clients include entrepreneurs, royalty, celebrities, and business leaders across the US, UK, Middle East, Europe, and Asia.
As Morgan notes: “Every country in the world has wealthy people, and we place butlers everywhere, from Europe to the US, Middle East, and even Africa, Russia, Iran, Iraq. Families find us online, and we’ve built a reputation for placing the best candidates.”
We Understand What Modern Families Need
Post-COVID, demand for in-home services has exploded. As Morgan explains again: “People now want all the services at home. They organize more private events. When you have a private butler, you don’t need to go to restaurants and show yourself outside. You can host private dinners at home, better privacy, especially for VIPs discussing business.”
We understand this change and we recruit candidates who do too.
