About Travis Club

Travis Club is a 1,500-acre private, family-centered club and residential community along Lake Travis. The community includes an 18-hole golf course designed by Beau Welling, 10,000 feet of waterfront, more than 30 miles of private trails, a marina and boat club, and a growing collection of dining, wellness, racquet, and recreation amenities. As the Club opens and grows, our team is building a member experience intended to set a new standard for private club life in Texas.

The Opportunity

Travis Club is seeking a creative, highly organized, and hospitality-minded Events & Communications Coordinator. This position will shape how members gather and how the Club communicates by planning member events from concept through post-event review and creating event marketing and Club-wide email communications.

What You Will Do

• Develop the member events and social programming calendar with the Clubhouse Manager and propose original concepts suited to Travis Club members and families.
• Research, recommend, and book approved vendors while preparing clear event orders, budgets, timelines, layouts, staffing plans, and weather contingencies.
• Coordinate internal teams and vendors before each event and remain actively involved in onsite setup, execution, and breakdown.
• Track registrations, expenses, invoices, member feedback, and after-action reports so each program can be evaluated and improved.
• Write, design, proof, and schedule event invitations, reminders, newsletters, operational notices, and other Club-wide email communications.
• Maintain accurate event information across the member website, app, calendar, registration platform, signage, menus, and promotional materials.

What We Are Looking For

• At least two years of relevant experience in events, hospitality, member services, communications, or marketing. Private-club or luxury-hospitality experience is preferred.
• Exceptional writing, editing, proofreading, interpersonal, and organizational skills, with strong visual judgment and attention to detail.
• Demonstrated ability to coordinate vendors, manage competing deadlines, and remain calm and solutions-oriented during active events.
• Experience with email marketing, event registration, member communication, and design or content-creation platforms. Photography and basic photo or video editing skills are a plus.
• A member-first service approach and the flexibility to work evenings, weekends, and holidays based on the Club's event calendar.

What Sets This Opportunity Apart

This is an uncommon opportunity to help establish the traditions, signature events, and communication voice of a growing private club. The role offers meaningful creative ownership and collaboration across golf, culinary, marina, recreation, wellness, and Club operations.
