Clubhouse Manager

Ozaukee Country Club is seeking an energetic, visible, and hospitality-driven Clubhouse Manager to help lead the next chapter of one of Wisconsin's premier private clubs. This newly created position reflects the Club's continued commitment to elevating the Member experience while investing in the future of its leadership team. While rooted in food and beverage leadership, the role has been intentionally designed to provide broader exposure to overall club management, making it an outstanding opportunity for an ambitious hospitality professional seeking a long-term career in private club leadership.

The successful candidate will foster a culture built on genuine hospitality, accountability, teamwork, and continuous improvement while serving as a highly visible presence throughout the Club. This role offers the opportunity to partner with an engaged and supportive General Manager while gaining valuable exposure to Board and committee leadership, strategic planning, capital projects, and the broader operation of a successful private club.

With a significant clubhouse renovation beginning in January, including the transformation of the Bar and Dining Room, the successful candidate will play an important role in shaping the future Member experience. Ozaukee is seeking a leader who views club management as a long-term career, someone with the ambition to grow professionally and embrace new challenges while making a lasting impact on the Club's culture and service standards.

Founded more than a century ago, Ozaukee Country Club is one of the Milwaukee area's most respected private clubs, serving approximately 470 member families. The Club has built a reputation for exceptional golf, outstanding dining, and a welcoming culture that brings members and their families together year-round. The Club features an 18-hole championship golf course complemented by a resort-style swimming pool, multiple indoor and outdoor dining venues, and an active calendar of social events and family programming.

From casual dinners on the patio to private celebrations and member events, the clubhouse serves as the heart of the member experience. Ozaukee Country Club continues to invest strategically in its future. Recent capital improvements include a new Grounds & Greens Maintenance Facility, a major pool expansion, and a nearly $1 million commercial kitchen renovation. The Club is now preparing for a comprehensive renovation of its dining and social spaces, further enhancing the member experience for years to come.

The Clubhouse Manager provides leadership, organization, and accountability for every aspect of the member hospitality experience. Success in this role requires a highly visible leader who enjoys interacting with members, develops strong teams, and collaborates closely with the Executive Chef to ensure seamless coordination between front- and back-of-house operations. The Clubhouse Manager reports directly to the General Manager and works collaboratively with the Executive Chef, CFO, Head Golf Professional, Superintendent, and other department heads to achieve the Club's strategic and operational goals.

The Club is seeking a friendly, approachable, and highly visible leader who embraces genuine Midwest hospitality and enjoys building relationships with members of all ages. The team is largely made up of younger seasonal employees, particularly in the pool and snack bar operations, making a passion for coaching, mentoring, and developing talent essential. A solid foundation in wine service, or a genuine enthusiasm to expand one's knowledge, is highly valued.
