The Rancho Santa Fe Association recently added two new faces to leadership positions within the organization. The Association has hired
Brian Bosse as the new assistant manager and Christopher Lake as the new chief financial officer.

Bosse’s first day on the job was Nov. 28 and he will oversee the parks and recreation department, the Rancho Santa Fe Patrol, Osuna Ranch and community-wide projects. According to a news release, Bosse brings a “strong commitment to community management and engagement” with over 27 years of local government experience.

For the bulk of his career, he worked for the city of Santa Barbara, most recently as the downtown manager overseeing a team responsible for parking, transportation and street operations. Previous roles for the city of Santa Barbara included the waterfront business manager, where he handled issues such as parking, property management and accounting. For 12 years he was also the city’s housing and redevelopment manager, focusing on redevelopment, economic development and affordable housing.

“We are thrilled to welcome Brian Bosse as the assistant manager,” said Manager Dominique Albrecht, who served as the RSF Association’s assistant manager before her promotion this spring. “His extensive experience and leadership make him an ideal candidate for this role.”

As the new CFO, Lake is replacing Seth Goldman, who recently retired after five years with the RSF Association. Lake was introduced to the community at the Dec. 7 board meeting, just his third day on the job.

According to a news release, Lake’s background in finance was in a variety of industries including wellness and consumer products and manufacturing, chemical manufacturing, private equity firms and more. In his past roles he managed financial controls; implemented reporting, financial and legal initiatives; and contributed to improved organizational performance, the Association said.

“Mr. Lake’s experience in financial stewardship makes him an invaluable addition to our team,” said Albrecht. “We are delighted to bring him on board as our new chief financial officer.”
