This is an opportunity to become an important part of the Timber Ridge team and help define what exceptional public golf looks and feels like.
We believe hospitality is more than being friendly or completing a transaction. It is anticipating needs, noticing the small things, taking genuine pride in the guest experience and making people feel welcomed, valued and looked after from the moment they arrive until the moment they leave. Whether interacting with a first-time guest, a regular golfer, a league participant, a tournament organizer or a member of the team, you will be expected to approach each interaction with professionalism, warmth, attentiveness and pride.

- Curiosity and a desire to understand the entire golf experience from the guest's perspective.
- The ability to remain calm, positive and solution-oriented when things do not go according to plan.
- A willingness to take ownership and follow through.
- A collaborative attitude and an understanding that exceptional service is created by a team.
- A desire to continually learn, improve and raise the standard of the experience we provide.
- Responsibilities
-
- Delivering attentive, professional and personal service to guests, golfers, leagues and tournament participants throughout their Timber Ridge experience.
- Creating a welcoming, organized and consistently high-quality Golf Shop environment.
- Building genuine relationships with golfers and develop an understanding of our guests and the experiences they value.
- Making leagues and group golf feel organized, personal and special-from the initial inquiry through to the final interaction.
- Assisting with house events, leagues, championships and outside tournaments, ensuring that participants feel welcomed, informed and well looked after.
- Contributing to the presentation of the Golf Shop, retail areas, fitting and practice areas and other guest- facing spaces.
- Developing strong product and equipment knowledge so that recommendations are thoughtful, credible and genuinely useful to the golfer.
- Assisting with retail, club repair, equipment service and other areas of the operation as required, always with the guest experience in mind.
- Contribute wherever needed to help the Timber Ridge team deliver a consistently exceptional experience.
