Would you like to work at a Top 10 course in the state of Virginia? How about one of the Top 10 Country Clubs in the nation? Or one of the Top Workplaces in Richmond, VA?

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.
