Indian Hill Club | Winnetka Illinois United states
Expires: February 14, 2024
Indian Hill Club located in Winnetka, IL is in search of a driven and eager individual to join their golf course maintenance staff as a 2nd Assistant Superintendent. This job offers the opportunity to help cultivate a great course culture and add positive leadership that can continue to create a goal-oriented, cohesive unit.
To be successful, the 2nd Assistant Superintendent must be a team player, have high attention to detail, strong communication skills, ability to listen and problem solve.
Indian Hill Club has consistently invested in the property and our people to ensure first-class operations. Their progressive culture has proven to accelerate team members into Golf Course Superintendent positions. We have had seven former assistants earn their own positions over the last two decades.
Initial Priorities for the Position:
Indian Hill Club is a private, family full-service club on the North Shore of Chicago. Located just minutes from urban Chicago, blocks from Lake Michigan, and easy access to the far north suburbs we offer an outstanding opportunity to live in a variety of metropolitan environments while working at a high-level club.
In 1914 a group of enterprising young men combined their vision, 250 acres of farmland, and their desire for a first-class golf club in their own backyard which propelled them to establish a beautiful course on 120 of those acres.
A fraternity of leading gentlemen of Winnetka sought to establish a place where "games and play and entertainment of all kinds may be practiced and pursued…" As ground was broken for this new club, many Indian relics were discovered and found to emanate from a variety of tribes, from the Miami Indians to the Potawatomi of Michigan. The parcels of farmland purchased are believed to be ancient Indian burial grounds, from which came the permanent club's name: Indian Hill Club.
Initial course routing from H.S. Colt with construction follow-up by Donald Ross. Landscaping and land planning by O.C. Simmons, a noted landscape architect. Follow-up problem solving by William Langford. CDPgolf.comis working toward a golden age restoration that will incorporate all three noted designer styles. Updates will continue with an eye toward a larger project in the near future.
Job Type: Full-time
Pay: $65,000.00 - $75,000.00 per year
