Job description

Overview

TwinEagles Club is a member-owned, full-service country Club with 717 residences across approximately 1,115 acres of breathtaking subtropical wilderness, meticulously preserved to offer panoramic views and immersive encounters with Florida wildlife. The Club boasts an Audubon International Gold Signature Sanctuary certification in recognition of its ecological stewardship. Members are offered a refined, yet relaxed environment known for its hospitality, camaraderie, and exceptional amenities.

Golf is at the heart of TwinEagles tradition. The Club is home to two acclaimed courses:

• The Talon Course, designed and renovated by Jack Nicklaus and Jack Nicklaus II (latest renovation completed in 2021), is celebrated for its length, challenging approach shots, and undulating greens. The Talon Course also served as the host venue for the PGA Tour Champions' Chubb Classic (formerly the ACE Group Classic) from 2002 to 2006 and 2012 to 2018.
• The Eagle Course, crafted by Steve Smyers and Patrick Andrews, is known for its architectural brilliance, strategic design features, and visual elegance, with updates made in 2019 for enhanced playability.

In addition to exceptional golf, Members enjoy diverse culinary experiences across sleek venues. There is a contemporary, open-air Grill with an oval island bar-perfect for sunset dinners or private gatherings; the casual Midway Café offering light bites, handmade pastries, and smoothies; and the lively Tiki Bar nestled in the pool oasis for shareable plates and tropical cocktails and monthly entertainment.

The Club also offers an energized social calendar, featuring themed gatherings, cooking classes, glow putt nights, Tiki Tuesdays at the Tiki Bar, and more-plus member-led clubs ranging from games and crafting to philanthropic pursuits.

The Sports & Wellness Center at TwinEagles offers an additional social aspect for Members, including personal training, physical therapy, massage therapy, swimming, bocce, pickleball and tennis.
