Job Benefits
The Beaver Creek Golf Club, nestled against the slopes of Beaver Creek Mountain, is one of the longest established golf courses in the Vail Valley. Opened in 1982, the course was designed by noted course architect Robert Trent Jones, Jr. and is known and respected for its long, narrow challenging fairways and its stunning scenery. Beaver Creek Golf Club is artfully complemented by its impeccably-maintained greens, awe-inspiring alpine backdrop and diverse array of Rocky Mountain wildlife. Both seasoned veterans and aspiring golfers will revel in the astonishing aura of one of the longest established golf courses in the Vail Valley. Precise shot-making is necessary between majestic pines, a cascading creek and off elevated tees throughout the 18 holes on this championship course. The first three holes challenge some of the best, and the last holes lead up to the clubhouse with a stunning fountain and pond landscape in sight. Views of Beaver Creek Ski Area, home of the 2015 FIS Alpine World Championships, envelop many of the lush fairways and greens. The Beaver Creek Golf Club course is located in a gated community and set parallel to Village Road, which leads directly to the world-renowned and European-inspired, Beaver Creek Village.
The purpose of the Assistant Golf Professional is to assist the Director of Golf and Head Golf Professional in every phase of the total golf operation. This concept includes assuming full responsibility for the Golf Shop and its operation in the absence of the Head Golf Professional.
As a member of the Golf Management Team, the Assistant Golf Professional will be a part of the entire operation. They will assist in all areas including the golf shop, practice facility, golf services and golf car operations. The position will promote an exceptional "golf experience," and provide excellent services and programs for all patrons.
This is a seasonal position from April/May to October.
