Job Descriptiontop

Overview

Glacier Club is seeking an enthusiastic individual who will help in every area of the golf operation. Working closely with the Director of Golf, Head Golf Professional, and other Assistant Professionals, a successful candidate will focus on high quality customer service and attention to detail in order to deliver the best possible experience to our members and guests. Glacier Club is looking for staff to work during our 2025 season, running from May 2 - October 26.

Resting at 7,400 feet amid the San Juan Range, Glacier Club's award-winning Mountain and Valley Golf Courses pair challenging terrain with Southwest Colorado’s most breathtaking scenery. Whether you tee off beneath majestic peaks on the Mountain Course or discover the many strategic options of our Valley Course, your days are well-spent on the greens at Glacier Club.

Pure Mountain Living! Surrounded by the majestic peaks of the San Juan Mountains, storied towns and more than three million acres of protected wilderness, Glacier Club is a community of passionate, adventure-loving families drawn to the limitless year-round recreation afforded by an uncommonly magical corner of Colorado.

Designed by Todd Schoeder and three-time U.S. Open Champion Hale Irwin, the Mountain Course at Glacier is enveloped by panoramic views that elevate the game itself. By utilizing the land’s dramatic topography and extraordinary rock formations, Schoeder and Hale brought to life a course that challenges even your most tried and tested strategies.

Initially designed in 1976 by renowned architect Arthur Hills, the 18-hole Valley Course has been modernized with new bunkering, hazards, fast undulating greens and tee-to-green strategic playing options. Golfers will find many elevation changes, challenging doglegs protected by trees and dramatic mountain views.
