Midtown is looking for a Facilities Manager to add to our world-class organization.

Midtown is committed to delivering world-class hospitality to members and we understand the importance the Facilities team plays in ensuring the consistency of that experience. We do not view Facilities as a department that works behind the scenes. We recognize that the condition and maintenance of our buildings are incredibly important and establishes the foundation for an incredible member experience. Without a strong culture of safety, a fanatical approach to club cleanliness, functioning facilities and equipment, and a constant focus on maintaining and caring for our buildings, the Midtown values will not be achieved.
