Assistant Facility Manager
About The Position
We are seeking a hands-on Assistant Facilities Manager to join our team at our automotive county club resort. As the second-in-command to the Facility Manager, this role is responsible for supporting the daily operation, maintenance, safety, and overall functionality of our world-class facility while helping lead the Facilities Department.

The successful candidate will work alongside the Facility Manager to oversee preventative maintenance programs, supervise maintenance personnel and vendors, coordinate facility improvement projects, troubleshoot complex building systems, and ensure the property consistently meets the highest standards of safety, reliability, appearance, and member experience. This is a working leadership role, not a desk job. We are looking for a hands-on professional who enjoys solving problems, leading by example, collaborating across departments, and actively participating in the day-to-day operation of a dynamic hospitality environment. This position offers an excellent opportunity for an experienced facilities professional to grow into a senior facilities leadership role.
