Join Our Team of Professional Organisers

We are seeking empathetic, meticulous freelance organisers across London and the Home Counties to deliver calm, judgement-free decluttering sessions for our clients.

Why Join Us

Flexible, Purpose-Driven Client Work

Contracting with Order from Chaos lets you focus on hands-on transformations while benefiting from our established client base.

Meaningful Projects

Flexible Scheduling

Established Standards

Undertake whole-home / office decluttering and organising, working with both neurotypical and neurodivergent clients

Choose client commissions that fit your current availability, preferred travel radius, and personal commitments.

Work alongside Jo de Serrano OBE with established operational frameworks, vetted client briefings, and continuous peer support.

What You'd Be Doing

  • Working one-to-one with clients in their homes or places of work, helping them decide what to keep, donate, recycle or let go of

  • Setting up storage and systems that fit how each client lives or works

  • Sorting and packing items for donation, recycling and disposal, arranging third-party charity collection services where appropriate

  • Providing advice to clients on the most suitable way to recycle, reuse, repair or dispose of items

  • Unpacking and settling clients into a new home

  • Treating clients' belongings and privacy with care

  • Where you have your own transport, taking donations to charity shops

  • Writing a short record of each session for me

Hours, Pay and Travel

  • This is a freelance contractor role, and you must be registered as self-employed.

  • Pay starts at £15 per hour whilst training, rising to £20 per hour on weekdays. 

  • Generally, sessions are either four (4) hours or seven and a half hours (7.5) long, Monday to Friday. Sessions over six hours include a 30-minute unpaid lunch break.

  • Work is ad hoc. I offer sessions, and you can say no. This suits you if you want flexible or supplementary work, and it won't suit you if you need fixed hours. Four-hour sessions can be worked around the school day.

  • The occasional Saturday or Sunday session may be offered, but there is no obligation for you to accept. I don't book sessions on bank holidays.

  • Where agreed with the client, travel costs are paid.

What I'm Looking For

Essential

  • The right to work in the UK

  • An Enhanced DBS certificate, or willingness to apply for one before you start. I work with vulnerable people and children.

  • Your own professional indemnity and public liability insurance, or willingness to arrange it before you start. I'll confirm the exact cover needed.

  • Living in or near London or the Home Counties, and able to travel to clients' homes or offices

  • Discretion, patience and a non-judgemental approach

  • Able to carry out the physical side of the role, including lifting, carrying, ladders and long periods on your feet.

  • Your own label maker and basic professional organiser equipment

Desirable

  • A full UK driving licence and a car, which makes moving donations much easier

  • Experience of organising, whether paid or personal

  • Lived experience of neurodivergence, or training in neurodiversity

What You Can Expect From Me

  • Shadowing me on sessions before you work alone

  • Ongoing mentoring

  • Training that covers how I work, including health and safety

Who Thrives in this Role

  • You have a natural gift for spatial flow, immaculate visual standards, and deep patience.

  • You respect each client's emotional attachment to their belongings, offering gentle guidance without ever imposing rigid aesthetic formulas.
