General Manager
Golf Club de Domaine Impérial
Gland, Switzerland

CLUB OVERVIEW
Located on the magnificent shores of Lake Geneva, the Golf Club du Domaine Impérial is widely regarded as one of the premier private members’ clubs in Switzerland and among the finest in Europe.

The Clubhouse, with origins dating back to 1860, provides a historic and elegant centrepiece for the property. It anchors a beautifully crafted 18 hole championship course designed by renowned architect Pete Dye and inaugurated in 1987.

The Club operates exclusively for its community of 1,000 members and their guests, with the exception of 10 sponsor events hosted annually. Membership consists of 750 full playing members and 250 social members who enjoy the Club’s exceptional hospitality.

The golf course is fully open from March to mid-December, with partial or full closure during the winter season. It welcomes approximately 30,000 rounds each year. The Club is currently undertaking significant course renovations, with further capital investment planned for the Clubhouse and supporting facilities.

Governance is provided by a seven member Association Committee elected by the membership. The General Manager reports to the Committee through the President, which is supported by a series of sub committees supporting the Club’s operational performance, long term development, and member interests.
