The Club
Founded in 1893, Riverside Golf Club is located in North Riverside, Illinois, just west of the city of Chicago. Through the years, the club has gone through many renovations and today is a beautiful club with member dining, a recently renovated ballroom/banquet facility, pool facilities for family activities and a crown jewel of a golf course. The golf course is one of the oldest and finest in the Midwest. The original course was designed by William Langford. The club acquired an additional 25 acres of land where the new holes were designed by Dick Nugent. In 2005, a practice facility and a redesign of the 18th hole and parking lot were completed by Bob Lohman. Most recently, the green surrounds and bunkers were returned to the original design by Dave Esler. Riverside is the oldest club west of the Allegheny Mountains existing on its original site.
The Opportunity
The General Manager is in charge of all club operations and must be a very visible and accessible leader to both the members and staff alike. The General Manager will guide the club under the direction of the Board of Directors. He/she will act as the leader, mentor and liaison between all department heads and committees; be held accountable for all areas of the club; and will enable the board to avoid the short-term focus that is the staff’s responsibility, allowing the board to focus on proper governance. The club seeks an experienced, strong, well-rounded club leader with particular experience in membership marketing, food and beverage management, and club finance and budget management. This is an excellent opportunity for a club management professional willing to focus on an exceptional level of professional service, attention to and recognition of the club’s loyal membership while providing leadership and guidance to its staff in order to achieve those goals.
Requirements
The General Manager will be the consummate professional, well-versed in all facets of club administration. The ideal candidate will have a minimum of five years as a General Manager, Assistant General Manager or Clubhouse Manager in a traditional, comparable private club setting. Candidates will have a working knowledge of all facets of private club operations with a strong emphasis on food and beverage, membership marketing, financial management and strategic planning.
