Job description

SPORTS FIELD SOLUTIONS IS SEEKING A:
Sports Turf Manager
To maintain immaculate sports fields at Texas A&M San Antonio.
Are you passionate about crafting flawless playing surfaces? Do you feel at home on a perfectly maintained field, knowing that your attention to detail sets the stage for champions? At Sports Field Solutions (SFS), we're obsessed with turning ordinary fields into professional-grade masterpieces-and we need a Sports Turf Manager to make that happen.
WHO YOU ARE
  • Sports Enthusiast: You've always loved the game, but even more, you've been drawn to the fields themselves. You know the difference between a ¾" height of cut and a ½" and the precision it takes to maintain perfect infield edges.
  • Detail-Oriented Professional: Perfection is your baseline. While others admire your work, you're already focused on the minor adjustments needed to improve the field even more.
  • Collaborative: While you can handle tasks on your own, you thrive in a team setting, where you can contribute to building a premium brand and exceptional playing surfaces.

WHO WE ARE
We love sports fields. How much? As much as Texas loves its high school football. That's a lot. We know that the difference between feeling like a professional athlete and a high school walk-on is often the quality of the playing surface. We love nothing more than the glimmer of stadium lights on a freshly-cut, pristine natural grass playing surface. Finally, we believe that great people transform businesses. We provide a vision and then ask our people to creatively use their talents to achieve it.
CORE RESPONSIBILITIES
  1. Field Maintenance Expert: Implement best practices in mowing, fertilization, aeration, pest management, moisture control, and top dressing to maintain collegiate-level sports field surfaces.
  2. Clay Area Specialist: Maintain and restore softball field areas, including infield skin, home plate, pitching circle, and warning track.
  3. Problem Solver: Monitor, report, and address turf issues like stress, disease, irrigation problems, and pest management.
  4. Communicator: Coordinate with coaching staff and school officials on schedules, game days, camps, and weather-related updates.
  5. Equipment & Irrigation Management: Perform preventative maintenance on equipment and conduct irrigation checks to ensure systems are working efficiently.
  6. Inventory Manager: Track field materials and manage the purchasing of fertilizers and other field essentials.

WHAT YOU BRING:
  • Experience: 3+ years in turfgrass management, with a history of getting results. If you've managed high-stakes, game-day-ready fields, we want to talk.
  • Skills & Know-How: From mower mechanics to moisture management, you know your stuff and have the certifications to back it up.
  • Driver's License: You'll need a valid one. We trust you with a lot, and that includes making sure our vehicles (and fields) are in good hands.

BONUS POINTS FOR:
  • Passion: You geek out on grass varieties, clay composition, and top-dressing techniques. Your hunger to learn is only matched by your drive to perfect the fields.
  • Communication Savvy: Whether you're talking to a coach, a crew member, or faculty, you know how to get your point across.
  • Team Spirit:
    No egos here. We're all about working together and supporting each other to get the job done-and done right.
