Director of Food and Beverage

Strategic Club Solutions
Ann Arbor, MI

Barton Hills Country Club in Ann Arbor, Michigan, is seeking a Director of Food & Beverage to join a historic, member-owned club with an engaged membership and strong tradition of quality. Founded in 1919 and home to a Donald Ross-designed course ranked among Michigan's finest, Barton Hills is a Distinguished Club of America that will host the USGA Women's Senior Open in August 2026.


The Director of Food & Beverage reports to the General Manager/COO and leads all front-of-house dining and beverage operations, with roughly $2.3 million in annual F&B revenue. This position carries direct authority over outlet management, service standards, staff training, and day-to-day operations in coordination with the Clubhouse Manager and Executive Chef.


A key focus in this role will be elevating the member dining experience from transactional to membership-focused by establishing consistent service standards, building a practical training program for an early-career team, and developing the existing management team.


This is a newly created role with genuine autonomy, the opportunity to build the service program, lead the team, and own the operation from the ground up. It is a strong fit for a private club or hospitality professional who values a service culture, team development, and operational structure within a well-supported club environment, with significant opportunities ahead.
