The Brome Lake Boating Club (BLBC) was founded in 1901, making the BLBC the second-oldest sporting Club in the Eastern Townships.

The Club Manager will also ensure that the workplace is positive, efficient, and secure for employees and offer an enjoyable experience to the members and guests during the summer season.

For the right candidate, the Club Manager role may be a stepping stone to a near-future full-year Executive Director role, with a flexible off-season time commitment. Priority in hiring will be given to a candidate who demonstrates a longer-term commitment to the development of this role and the next steps for the future of the Club.
