Event Coordinator

Join the Team at Escondido Golf & Lake Club!

Where Luxury Meets Legacy

Escondido Golf & Lake Club is a private luxury retreat nestled in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, gracing the tranquil shores of Lake LBJ. With Tuscan-inspired architecture, breathtaking views, and a culture rooted in warmth and excellence, Escondido is more than a destination—it’s a way of life.

We’re looking for an Events Coordinator who makes those moments feel effortless.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As part of our Events & Communications team, you’ll guide private events from the first inquiry to the final farewell. You’ll be the host’s trusted partner, the author of every Banquet Event Order, and the steady hand keeping Culinary, Service, Golf, and Facilities moving in step. This role is designed as a true pathway to Events Manager.

WHAT YOU BRING

◆ 2–3 years coordinating private events, weddings, or banquets in a private club, luxury hotel, resort, or similar high-touch setting

WHERE THIS ROLE CAN TAKE YOU

This position is built as a pathway to Events Manager. As you master event execution, BEOs, and host relationships, your role will grow to include pricing and contract decisions, leading the weekly BEO meeting, owning private event revenue goals, and setting team standards, with advancement in title and compensation to match.
