About the Role

The Company is seeking a Chief Operating Officer to lead all operations, finances, and personnel for a member-owned club. The role oversees department leaders and is accountable for a consistent, high-quality member experience across the club’s amenities. Responsibilities include developing operating and capital budgets, guiding food and beverage and event operations, and advancing facility plans in collaboration with the Board and committees. The COO will also support membership engagement, lead and develop staff, oversee golf operations, and provide operational leadership for signature events. Initial priorities include assessing departmental performance, strengthening service and accountability, and building trusted relationships with members and employees. Candidates should have proven senior operating leadership experience at a private, member-owned club of comparable scale and complexity, ideally with golf and racquets. Strong financial expertise, including budgeting, forecasting, cost management, and long-range planning, is required, along with experience leading teams and significant capital projects. Applicants should understand private-club governance and demonstrate sound judgment, integrity, strong communication skills, and an approachable leadership style. A bachelor’s degree is preferred, particularly in hospitality management, though substantial relevant experience may substitute; industry certifications are encouraged but not required.
