• Driving service standards, operational consistency and a welcoming clubhouse atmosphere.
• Overseeing clubhouse events, member functions and social activities.

• Monitoring budgets, margins and operational performance to support sustainable growth.
• Working collaboratively with colleagues across Finance, Sport, Estates and People to deliver a seamless Club experience.
• Acting as a visible leader during busy trading periods, evenings and major Club events.

About you

You will be an experienced operational leader who thrives in customer‑focused environments and enjoys building high‑performing teams.

You'll bring:

• Experience leading hospitality, leisure, clubhouse or front‑of‑house operations.
• A genuine passion for delivering exceptional customer or member experiences.
• Strong leadership skills with the ability to motivate and develop teams.
• Commercial awareness and experience managing budgets, margins or revenue performance.
• Excellent organisational and communication skills.
• A hands‑on approach with the confidence to lead from the front.
• Flexibility to work evenings and weekends when required to support key events and trading periods.

Why join The Parklangley Club?

This is an opportunity to join one of the South East's leading members' clubs through an exciting period of growth and transformation.

You'll join a forward‑thinking Senior Leadership Team committed to continually improving the member experience, investing in our people and developing new commercial opportunities.
