Job description

Property Description

Where soul-stirring golf meets the spirit of the American West. Rodeo Dunes is a public golf resort developed by Michael Keiser, owner of Sand Valley Resort. Set on over 4,000 acres of towering sand dunes reminiscent of the southwest coast of Ireland, Rodeo Dunes is set to become a world-class golf destination. Two course routings are complete - one by the acclaimed duo of Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw, and the other marking the solo debut of longtime C&C associate, Jimmy Craig. Construction began in the summer of 2024. With a rollicking, sandy dunescape, welcoming Western hospitality, and inspiring long views of the Rocky Mountains, Rodeo Dunes will introduce guests to a historic - but new to many - region of Colorado. Rodeo Dunes is located less than an hour from Denver and Denver International Airport, and just a short drive from the Fort Collins and Colorado Springs areas.

  • Maintain cleanliness and organization of all guest-facing and operational areas
  • Assist with outside operations as needed, including bag handling, cart staging, and guest arrival/departure flow
  • Support tournament and outing execution, including setup, scoring, and coordination
  • Communicate effectively with team members across Golf Operations to ensure alignment on daily play and guest needs
  • Uphold all Rodeo Dunes policies, service standards, and operational procedures
  • Maintain a professional appearance and demeanor in all interactions
  • Anticipate guest needs and proactively resolve issues to enhance the overall experience
  • Contribute to a team-first startup culture, taking on additional responsibilities as needed
Qualifications:
  • Previous golf or hospitality experience preferred
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills
  • Professional demeanor with a commitment to hospitality excellence
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment
  • Interest in growing within the golf industry and a startup resort setting
Perks and Benefits for Full Time Employees:
