Facilities, Electrical & IT Specialist

La Cumbre Country Club | Santa Barbara, CA $26.00 – $27.50/hour | Full-Time

Welcome to La Cumbre

Nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the Santa Ynez Mountains in the historic hideaway of Hope Ranch, La Cumbre Country Club has been Santa Barbara's definitive membership club since 1916. "La Cumbre" means "high place, summit, peak," and delivering that peak experience, on the course, at the pool, on the tennis courts, and throughout our grounds, depends on a Facilities team that takes real pride in the property.

At La Cumbre, we blend the vibrant spirit of Santa Barbara with excellence and a warm community. We're looking for team members who value elegance, courtesy, and a sense of family, ready to contribute to our legacy and elevate every interaction, including the person who keeps everything behind the scenes running exactly as it should.

The Role

The Facilities Manager oversees the operation, maintenance, and safety of the Club's buildings, grounds, and aquatic facilities, including our championship golf course surrounds, six plexi-pave tennis courts, aquatics area, fitness center, and outdoor dining spaces. You'll lead preventive maintenance and capital improvement efforts, manage vendor and contractor relationships, keep an eye on the budget, and ensure our pool and water features meet Certified Pool Operator standards. You'll also lead a team of facilities and pool staff, from hiring and scheduling to coaching and performance management. This is a role for someone who's equally comfortable troubleshooting a mechanical issue and mentoring a team member, and who takes as much pride in a well-run property as our members do.
