Indian billionaire hires 12 staff to help daughter study at UK university

An unnamed Indian billionaire's daughter is being called the "poshest" student in the UK after her family placed an advertisement seeking staff members to help her during the four years she will be studying at the University of St Andrews.

The billionaire's daughter will have a house manager, three housekeepers, a gardener, a lady's maid and a butler on hand to help her, besides three footmen, a private chef and chauffeur, The Sun reported.


These staff members will be employed at the family's new luxurious mansion, which was bought so that the daughter wouldn't have to stay in general student accommodation.

The billionaire's family had placed an advertisement a few months ago seeking "an outgoing, cheerful" maid with an energetic personality. The maid's work would entail "waking principal up, liaising with other staff regarding routine and schedule (and) assisting with grooming."

The staff will also be responsible for wardrobe management and personal shopping, the job requirement posted by recruitment agency Silver Swan said.

The staff members will be paid around 30,000 pounds a year, reported PTI.
