The Lifestyle Coordinator should be physically able to assist in event set-up and break down and the ability to stand for extended periods of time. Must also be able to work nights, weekends and holidays. Hours will vary depending on the assigned duties.
The ideal candidate will have strong communication and managerial skills, familiarity with recreation needs of the active adult community and the ability to meet those needs with an extensive agenda of activities. Must be computer literate with at least five years of experience with Microsoft Office. Must have excellent written and verbal communication skills as well as basic reasoning and mathematical skills. Must be able to meet strict deadlines with a moderate to high sense of urgency and have the ability to work within a defined budget. Must thrive in a fast-paced environment and be able to jump from task to task as needed. Must be able to work closely with other staff members, departments of the Community Association and employees of CCMC. Must be a self-starter in need of minimal supervision, must be organized and detail-oriented and must portray a positive, customer-service oriented attitude.
Sweetgrass is a place where amenities and lifestyle, the indoors and the outdoors, the daytime and the evening, all come together to create a community. On site, you will find 500 acres of land that represent 1,500 home sites, with a much anticipated, multi-million dollar amenity area with a state-of-the-art amenity center with indoor and outdoor pools, fitness center, walking trails, and a plethora of outdoor facilities. Sweetgrass is the epitome of true southern comfort coupled with the famous Del Webb lifestyle.
The rolling topography at Del Webb Sweetgrass creates beautiful country-like views of the area with plenty of opportunities to view wildlife in its natural habitat, including Rabb’s Bayou and more than 50 acres of water on site. Sweetgrass is the first Del Webb community in the area for those aged 55 and better.
