Assistant General Manager
Vestavia Country Club
Birmingham, Alabama
CLUB OVERVIEWVestavia Country Club (VCC or the Club) is a premier private club known for its rich tradition of hospitality, exceptional recreational amenities, and welcoming environment for families of all ages. Over the past five years, the Club has welcomed many new families, with membership shifting to a younger demographic and more active dependents enjoying the Club’s facilities.
VCC also has a proven history of successful reinvestment. Its last major capital project, the 2016 renovation, delivered a significant upgrade to the 18 hole golf course, reinforcing the Club’s commitment to continuous improvement. Earlier, the 2010 renovation revitalized the Par 3 course, Tennis building, and Pool, helping strengthen VCC’s long term capital strategy.
Member sentiment continues to validate this forward momentum. In the 2025 Member Survey, members expressed high satisfaction with the Club’s overall experience while identifying opportunities for enhancements (dining, fitness, and locker rooms) that are being addressed in the next wave of capital improvements.
VCC is in the process of a significant clubhouse transformation, with the dining and fitness areas scheduled to re-open in July 2026. The overall renovation plan includes:
A redesigned Grandview Grill with expanded dining and an artisanal pizza kitchen
A refreshed Wellington Room with interior and patio enhancements
A fully expanded and modernized fitness center
Upgrades throughout the Pub, Living Room, Ascot Room, Windsor Room, Corridors, Reception Room, Ballroom, and Ladies’ and Gentlemen’s Rooms
Improved landscaping and Tennis Pavilion upgrades
To support this next chapter, the Club is seeking an Assistant General Manager (AGM) who will help refine operating procedures, build and onboard a service‑driven team, and ensure elevated and consistent member experiences through the reopening and beyond.
