Description

Overview

We are currently looking to add a Golf Professional to our team at Thousand Oaks Golf Club. This individual will be a key member of our team and be a leader in the Golf Operation as we continue to enhance our membership experience.

Join the family of Golf Professionals at RedWater Golf! RedWater has 8 golf facilities (6 private & 2 public), 5 private pools, 9 event venues, and 10 restaurants, as well as multiple LiveGolf Studios simulator locations and RedWater Fitness facilities throughout West Michigan! RedWater continues to grow and support the golf, sports, and fitness industry in West Michigan by providing a high-quality collection of facilities for their members, guests, and public alike.

At RedWater Golf, we understand that each person's relationship with golf changes throughout their lives. Whether someone golfs occasionally or is on the tee box every day, RedWater has an option for them. Our people-first approach to golf provides members and guests with everything they need, but nothing they won't use. We're happy to see people on one of our public courses or with one of our numerous membership options, which range from corporate, to single or family, to pool only.

RedWater Golf's 8 locations include:

6 private facilities:

Macatawa Golf Club

Muskegon Country Club

StoneWater Country Club

Sunnybrook Country Club

Thousand Oaks Golf Club

Watermark Country Club

2 public facilities:

Ravines Golf Club

The Golf Club at Thornapple Pointe

At our private clubs, we take a unique approach by adding benefits to your home club membership. These benefits include the option to make tee times at any of the other 5 private clubs, standardized member rates at our public facilities, free or discounted RedWater Fitness memberships and rebates in all 10 of our restaurant locations. Whether it is just to have a day away for golf or to have the ability to play multiple courses, members have a unique opportunity that few clubs can offer their membership. Each of our clubs has a completely different style of course which adds to the enjoyment of having access to other courses to play as a member within the group. This unique approach has allowed us to grow from owning just one facility in 1997 to 8 facilities as of 2021!

We are proud to not only offer our members a great value for their membership, but also offer our team members the opportunity to learn and advance as we continue to grow as an organization.
