Founder Bio
Robert Wennekes is the founder of Jade Private Advisory Office and a global authority on the True Art of Service. Over four decades, he has shaped the standards by which butlers, household managers, and private staff are educated and judged.
He is the founder of The International Butler Academy and has guided households of royal, ministerial, and ultra-high-net-worth families across Europe, the Gulf, North America, and Asia.
Through Jade Private Advisory Office, Robert Wennekes provides counsel on the recruitment, refinement, and long-term continuity of private service establishments — with the discretion that such matters require.
Service, rightly understood, is not a profession of arrangement. It is a quiet stewardship of trust, exercised long before a request is ever made.
