What would the title be?

I am trying to think of the name of the woman in charge of running a household. She's not the lady of the house, but is the head servant, so to speak.

If it matters, this is for an app I am writing which allows for the delgating of responsibilities. So, if the title I am trying to remember isn't good, please make suggestions!

    I don't believe there is an 'official' term such as Mr, miss, master ect...

    However, the title you are describing sounds like what most would refer to as the

    'head maid'

    I know it's similar to the one you stated.

    How about the madame.

    or a serving maid.
