About the Role

The Facilities Director is responsible for the day-to-day functionality, upkeep, and success of Farm and Forge’s properties. Reporting to the General Manager/Chief Operating Officer, this is a hands-on, leadership role, and requires a true player-coach. You’ll oversee facilities operations, make critical decisions on in-house vs. contractor-led repairs, manage facility staffing levels, vendor and warranty relationships, and ensure that every building and outdoor space is safe, welcoming, and running smoothly.

At launch in November 2025, you’ll oversee a 65,000 sq. ft. facility and a small team focused on providing the best member experience possible. This scope will expand as two additional 65,000 sq. ft. buildings, indoor + outdoor tennis courts (36 in total), and turf fields are completed in mid-2026 and beyond.
