About the Role
Golf Course Superintendent
Location: Southwestern Minnesota
Facility: 9-Hole Golf Course
Reports To: Board of Directors
The Role
We’re looking for someone who takes pride in a good-looking golf course and isn’t afraid to get their hands dirty. This is a working superintendent role — not a desk job. You’ll be out on the course daily making sure conditions are right, solving problems, and leading a small crew.
If you’re the type who notices striping on fairways, cares about clean greens, and fixes things before anyone else sees the problem — this is the job.
What You’ll Do
Be on-site daily managing and working alongside the grounds crew
Keep greens, tees, fairways, and rough in solid playing condition
Run and maintain the irrigation system (and fix it when it breaks)
Stay ahead of weeds, disease, dry spots, and weather challenges
Set pins and tees with playability in mind
Maintain equipment or coordinate repairs when needed
Hire, train, and lead a small seasonal crew
Keep things running within budget — spend money where it matters
What We’re Looking For
Experience on a golf course (Superintendent or Assistant is ideal, but not required if you know your stuff)
Strong understanding of turf in a Minnesota climate
Someone who can work independently and make decisions without needing hand-holding
Mechanical ability is a big plus
Shows up early, works hard, and takes ownership
Easy to work with — you’ll interact with the Board and members
The Reality of the Job
Early mornings are the norm during the season
Some weekends and holidays — it’s golf
Weather changes everything — you adapt and keep moving
Compensation
Competitive pay based on experience
Golf privileges
Bottom Line
We want someone who treats the course like it’s their own. If you take pride in your work and want to run a clean, playable 9-hole course without a bunch of red tape, we’d like to talk.
