He explains what younger candidates want, why the money is no longer the whole story, and how employers can attract and keep them. It is a candid look at how private service is changing. Morgan explains why younger candidates move from luxury hospitality into private homes, and why comfort, communication, and rest now rank above pay. He talks through the shortage of young domestic couples, and the practical fixes when a couple cannot be found. He also shares how to handle tension between older and younger staff, and what builds a team that lasts. KEY TAKEAWAYS Younger candidates move into private service from luxury hospitality for the environment, the travel, and better pay than a five-star hotel.The employer's behavior now matters as much as the money. New candidates ask about the family, the relationship, and how staff are treated.Comfort, good accommodation, clear organization, and communication now come before salary for many younger staff.Young domestic couples are in short supply, especially between Monaco and Saint-Tropez and in the Hamptons, so employers may need to split roles or flex on experience.To build a lasting team, hire for experience and longevity, check references, and treat a pattern of job-hopping as a red flag.
