Gardiners Run is the home of golf for Chirnside Park Country Club.

Set in the picturesque Yarra Valley, and only 50 minutes from the centre of Melbourne, Gardiners Run opened for play in May 2014.  It provides golf members and public golfers with an 18-hole golf course, a wide variety of practice facilities (fairway, chipping, bunker and putting green), and an intimate clubhouse providing food, beverage, golf shop, locker rooms and associated facilities.  The course is enjoying high levels of demand for membership, and public play.

The Country Club is now seeking a dynamic golf business professional to be responsible for all aspects of Gardiners Run.

Working closely with the Country Club’s General Manager and leading a small professional team, your priorities will be to drive growth in activity, revenue, and profit; deliver great golf, social and hospitality experiences; and nurture the increasing membership.

• Demonstrated experience in the management and delivery of golf play, golf services, golf operations, golf retail, and hospitality.
• Commercial approach, with a record in achieving revenue growth and improved profitability – including the effective use of technology.

You will possess excellent management, financial and organisational skills.  Also, you will be a friendly, independent, and motivated person with strong communication and personal skills that match the Club’s culture.  A PGA accreditation is highly regarded.
