Descripción del empleo

This is a seasonal role running from mid-April through mid-October.

Sand Valley is a golf resort and community settled gently upon 12,000 acres of rugged, prehistoric sand dunes in central Wisconsin. Here, residents and guests will find six world-class golf courses built in harmony with the land: Sand Valley, Mammoth Dunes, Sandbox, The Lido, Sedge Valley, and Commons. Founded in 2016 by brothers Michael and Chris Keiser, the resort is known for its friendly hospitality and a community of golf and outdoor enthusiasts who have been drawn to the raw beauty and serenity of the vast Wisconsin Wilderness. Beyond premier golf, Sand Valley is a year-round celebration of all the outdoors from fat-tire biking, hiking, and kayaking to ice hockey, skating, or a guided cold plunge. The resort now features a 13,000-square-foot Tennis Center with 16 grass tennis courts and the twelfth Court Tennis facility in the United States. Alongside soul-stirring golf and outdoor exploration, Sand Valley offers a variety of savory dining venues showcasing globally inspired and rustic Wisconsin cuisine. The Sand Valley team works together to create experiences of a lifetime by asking questions and sharing ideas. With authenticity and a hard-working attitude, Sand Valley helps guide guests through an immersive experience in Wisconsin's natural beauty and away from the demands of daily life.

About The Lido

The Lido Golf Club, designed by C.B. Macdonald, opened on Long Island in 1914 and featured many classic templates, including the Alps, Redan, and Eden. At the time, it was considered a masterpiece, rivaling Pine Valley and National Golf Links. Unfortunately, the course was demolished during World War II when the U.S. Navy acquired the property in 1942. Since its disappearance, the original Lido has remained a legendary lost course, captivating golf enthusiasts with its mystique. Eight decades later, Michael and Chris Keiser resurrected the original routing adjacent to Sand Valley. The scale of the course, the depth of its hazards, and the size of the greens, which average over 12,000 square feet, is dazzling. Representing the great template holes once again, from the Alps to the Redan, make this course a strategic marvel.
