About the role
Assistant Golf Course SuperintendentAtlanta Athletic Club is a private 36 hole facility, located 25 miles North of Atlanta. Our charter as a private club dates back to 1898 when a group of young businessmen were looking for a place to enjoy indoor and outdoor athletics with their associates and friends. The original downtown club was located on Edgewood Avenue and through the ages twice outgrew its space and relocated.
The Club added a golf course and country club at East Lake in 1915 and moved to the present Johns Creek location in the late 1960s. The club has been home to many great athletes, most notably Bobby Jones.
The club has played host to multiple major events and most recently hosted the 2021 KPMG Women's PGA Championship and the 2025 U.S. Girl's Junior. In continuation of this history, the Atlanta Athletic Club has also partnered with the USGA in order to host multiple tournaments in the future as well. Future tournaments include: 2030 U.S. Amateur, and 2035 Women's Amateur Championship.
In the beginning of January 2022, the Riverside course went through a complete rebuild and redesign, under the direction of architect Tripp Davis. The renovation included an all HDPE irrigation system, sand capping fairways and tees, drainage installation, and reshaping for the new design. In 2027, the Highlands course will undergo a complete rebuild and redesign under the direction of architect Andrew Green.
This will include an all HDPE irrigation system, installation of 50+ miles of sub surface drainage, and a significant redesign of the 55-year-old course.
