He’d never worked in an office. He wasn’t a fast typer. So he started turning up at 6am
That mentality tells you a LOT about this week’s guest.
In the latest episode of Life in Private Staffing, Philippa sits down with Tony — an old-school, traditionally trained Butler whose career has taken him through some of London’s most prestigious five-star hotels and into the world of private service.
And what a career he’s had.
From working his way through luxury hospitality and stepping into roles he’d never done before, to managing Butler teams, luxury procurement, private events and eventually building a business of his own, Tony’s story is packed with lessons on work ethic, adaptability, confidence and career progression.
They also get into:
What traditional Butler service really looks like
Moving from five-star hotels into private households
Why experience matters just as much as Butler training
Learning to adapt your service to every Principal
Imposter syndrome and thinking on your feet
Leadership and managing other Butlers
Building confidence by saying yes to opportunities
Creating a career beyond the traditional hotel route
One line from Tony really sums up the art of exceptional private service:
Your presence is never seen, but your absence is always felt.”
Whether you’re already working as a Butler, House Manager or private household professional, looking to move from luxury hospitality into private staffing, or simply fascinated by what happens behind the scenes in high-level service, this episode is well worth a listen.
