A Role That Gets Misunderstood Even by People Hiring For It
"Batman" (also called NCB, or simply personal attendant) is one of the more confusing categories to explain, mostly because the name itself sounds unrelated to the job. A batman provides dedicated one-on-one support: errands, packing, scheduling, and general personal tasks for an individual rather than a household as a whole. It is closer to a personal assistant with some manual duties than a traditional domestic staff role.
Who Actually Needs One
This role tends to fit two kinds of clients: busy professionals who need someone managing daily logistics, from errands to scheduling to travel packing, and households supporting an individual family member, often elderly or with reduced mobility, who needs a dedicated attendant rather than shared household staff. If your need is "someone to help run my day," not "someone to clean the house," this is the category.
What It Costs
A batman in Pakistan typically starts around PKR 35,000 a month, in line with other general household support roles, though the exact figure depends on the specific mix of duties and whether the role is live-in.
How This Differs From a Helper or a Caretaker
It is worth being precise here because the categories genuinely overlap in the public's mind. A helper supports the household's cook or maid with chores. A caretaker provides companionship and mobility support for an elderly or unwell family member. A batman is dedicated to one individual's personal logistics and errands, not household chores and not medical or companionship care specifically. If your need crosses into more than one of these, tell us directly and we will help you figure out the right category, or whether you need more than one hire.
Verification
Because a batman often has close, ongoing access to one person's schedule, belongings and daily movements, verification is not optional: CNIC checked against NADRA records, a Police Character Certificate from the candidate's own local police station, and previous employers called directly by us to confirm reliability and trustworthiness, not just competence.
