The posting

The Real Estate Team is a significant part of the growth engine of our company. We thrive on finding the best property and markets to expand our portfolio of Athletic Resort destinations. We work side by side with our Team Members in the Property Development group by leveraging continual collaboration throughout the life cycle of each project. When you join our team, you are joining a group of fun and talented people. We offer an incredible benefits package, generous club discounts, and a fully subsidized Signature Life Time membership.

Position Summary

The Engineering Manager is the technical backbone of the Development Team who is responsible for growing our network of luxury health and fitness destinations. You’ll set the engineering strategy that shapes raw parcels into sites that are ready for construction. You’ll build and lead a trusted bench of site development consultants to establish feasibility, prepare construction documents, secure entitlements and permits, and support construction. No two projects are the same, and you’ll be the engineering voice that delivers the best-in-class clubs our members love.

Job Duties and Responsibilities

Feasibility & Evaluation: Evaluates new club opportunities by overseeing concept site layouts, reviewing existing conditions, identifying significant cost hurdles, and recommending solutions to the Real Estate Team during site selection.

Consultant Relationships: Interviews and selects planning and design professionals, including civil engineers, geotechnical engineers, traffic engineers, and landscape architects. You’ll also continually network to keep a strong pool of technical partners ready for every project across your regional market.

Consultant Budget & Contract Management: Drafts RFPs and negotiates contracts and change orders with consultants, keeping every decision aligned with the scope, schedule, and budget goals of the club, and owning the overall consultant budget for each project.

Due Diligence: Leads the completion of site due diligence, including grading and utility plans, geotechnical and environmental reports, and survey and title review. You’ll partner with Construction to review, and value engineering, our plans to ensure they meet Life Time’s best-in-class standards without breaking the budget.

Site Design & Construction Documents: Directs consultants through site design in close coordination with the Architectural Team and conducts QA/QC reviews to make sure every plan is ready for approval.

Entitlements & Permits: Partners with Development Managers to drive consultants toward every approval and permit needed to build and operate Life Time’s clubs. You’ll build lasting relationships with jurisdictions to keep permits moving.

Real Estate Agreements & Closings: Brings technical expertise to the negotiation of Work Letters, Site Development Agreements, and Easements alongside the Development Manager and Real Estate Team. You’ll generate the site exhibits these agreements require and track consultant delivery milestones once they are signed.

Pre-Construction & Mobilization: Supports the Construction Team as they select GCs and keeps consultants responsive to RFIs. You’ll make sure permits are in hand, fees are paid, and sellers’ or landlord’s work is complete before mobilization.

Construction & Turnover to Operations: Brings site development expertise to the Construction Team and resolves issues quickly during construction. You’ll conduct QA/QC site visits to confirm site, and landscape work follows plan and meets Life Time standards, then support inspections and a smooth handoff to operations.

Project Closeout: Hands each club to the Property and Asset Management teams with the documentation they need to protect and maintain it for the long term.

  • Professional Engineer (PE) License
  • 3-4 years of experience

  • Communicates clearly with consultants, municipalities, and leadership
  • Relationship builder
  • Continuous learners who are adaptable to change
  • Thrives in a fast-paced environment
  • Ability to prioritize a broad set of responsibilities across many projects and processes
  • Some travel is part of the role, typically same-day or overnight for site walks or providing support during entitlements.
  • Located at our Corporate Headquarters in Chanhassen, MN. Remote candidates will not be considered.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
