Job Description

What You Will Do

  • Greet golf guests like old friends, even if it's their first time here - you're the friendly face that sets the tone.
  • Keep the course running smoothly by managing tee times, monitoring pace of play, and enforcing cart and course rules (with a smile, of course).
  • Double-check receipts and assign carts like a tee-time traffic controller - organized is your middle name.
  • Be the go-to for where the snacks and drinks are (because golf is thirsty work).
  • Pitch in with everything from filling water coolers to filing ranger reports - no task too small, no course too big.

What We Are Looking For

  • Basic knowledge of golf rules and etiquette - You don't need to be the next Tiger Woods, but knowing a birdie from a bogey helps you guide players and keep the game running smoothly.
  • Customer service experience (3+ months) - If you've helped people before, you'll help golfers feel welcome.
  • Comfort being on your feet all day - You'll be walking the course, not sitting in the clubhouse.
  • Ability to lift up to 50 lbs - Water jugs and ball washers aren't light.
  • Flexible availability - Our guests play early mornings, evenings, and weekends. You'll be there when it counts.
  • Team spirit and initiative - You'll work closely with the golf and grounds crew to keep things smooth and stress-free.
