This is a great opportunity for individuals who are passionate about advancing their career in preparation for becoming a successful Superintendent.

The Country Club of Virginia is looking for an individual to help facilitate the constant improvement of the golf course and provide exceptional experiences for our members. Assistants will have the opportunity to be hands-on in all golf course management.

The Assistant Superintendent's responsibilities will include but are not limited to, managing the crew (25 in season), moisture management, pesticide and fertilizer applications, drainage designs and installations, implementing cultural practices, course construction projects, etc. At CCV, we are fortunate to have an irrigation department, in-house arborists, and a robust shop maintenance operation. This allows the Assistant to learn these skills without the tasks becoming their main focus.
