Chief Operating Officer (COO)

The Company seeks a Chief Operating Officer to lead overall operations, financial performance, and the member experience at a multifaceted private club. Working with the Board and department leaders, the COO will translate strategic priorities into operational plans, oversee facilities and capital improvements, and foster a culture of hospitality, collaboration, and accountability. Key priorities include strengthening employee development and retention, improving food and beverage quality and service consistency, and preparing for major facility projects. The role also involves engaging with members and staff, advising the Board, and aligning operational and financial resources with long-term goals. Candidates should bring at least five years of general management experience in a comparable private club or luxury hospitality setting, though exceptional emerging leaders may also be considered. Required strengths include food and beverage operations, fiscal management, complex budgeting, team development, and oversight of large recreational amenities. The ideal candidate demonstrates integrity, strong communication and relationship-building skills, and a record of coaching employees and collaborating effectively with boards and committees. A bachelor’s degree, preferably in hospitality management, is preferred; substantial relevant experience may substitute, and industry certifications are encouraged but not required.
