Greenskeeper/Maintenance
Quick Apply Full-time Part-time 1 day ago Full Job Description A greenkeeper is responsible for the maintenance, care and overall appearance of a golf course.
It is their job to maintain a good playing surface and ensure the course offers a consistent challenge and an enjoyable experience to golfers.
There are four key areas on a golf course - tees, fairways, greens and areas of rough - each of which requires a different type of maintenance.
Greenkeepers are often also responsible for the maintenance and planting of trees, shrubs and flower beds.
They tour the course at the start of the day in order to prepare the course for play.
This can require very early starts to ensure the best playing surfaces are available on a daily basis.
Greenkeepers also need to be constantly aware of golfers on the course, making sure their work does not interfere with play, and must keep health and safety at the forefront of all their activities.
Their work may include:
Mowing turf using tractors, ride-on machines and specialist hand mowers.
Treating turf to ensure consistent playing surfaces.
Using environmentally friendly treatments to control weeds, fungal diseases and pests when instructed to do so by supervisors or management.
Renovating and maintaining bunkers and other hazards such as water features.
Removing early morning dew and debris from the greens.
Repairing wear and tear caused by golfers and animals such as moles and rabbits.
Responding to enquiries and dealing with any golfers in line with current responsibilities and management guidance.
Attending to drainage problems.
Applying irrigation.
Cutting new holes on greens.
Planting and pruning trees and shrubs as required.
Operating and maintaining machinery and tools.
Greenkeepers are increasingly required to take into account the environmental impact of their work, especially in terms of water conservation and the use of chemicals.
Although they are part of a larger team, Greenkeepers often work on tasks alone.
They often work under the supervision of a golf course manager.
