Golf Course Maintenance Worker

College Grad Feeling Stuck? Get a Real Career Outdoors + Tuition Support for a Turfgrass Science Degree at Chester Valley Golf Club Full Posting Text Are you a recent college graduate (or someone who started but didn’t finish) who feels like your degree hasn’t led anywhere — and you’re not willing to take on even more student debt? You’re not alone. Many smart, motivated people hit that wall after graduation and realize they want something different: meaningful work, fresh air, and a clear path forward without drowning in loans. That path is waiting for you at Chester Valley Golf Club. We’re a premier private club in Malvern, PA, with a championship golf course known for pristine conditions and an incredible team environment. As a member of our Grounds Crew, you’ll work outside every day in a beautiful, high-end setting — doing hands-on work that directly shapes how the course plays and looks. If you enjoy being outdoors, have even a casual interest in golf, and want a career that rewards hard work instead of just another desk job, this is your opportunity. What you’ll do as part of our Grounds Crew: • Maintain world-class playing conditions (mowing greens, fairways & roughs, bunker care, irrigation, landscaping) • Operate professional turf equipment and learn the science behind healthy turf • Work side-by-side with an experienced team under the Director of Grounds • Grow into more advanced responsibilities as you prove yourself The game-changer: Subsidized Turfgrass Science Education We don’t just hire seasonal help — we invest in people who invest in us. Show us consistent hard work, reliability, and dedication, and we’ll subsidize the cost of your Turfgrass Science degree or certificate (through respected programs like Penn State’s Golf Course Turfgrass Management or Rutgers University). This is a true sponsored career pathway — turning an entry-level role into a professional future in golf course management, sports turf, or landscaping. Who we’re looking for: • College graduates (or near-graduates) who feel “unused” or unsure of their next step • People who love the outdoors and aren’t afraid of physical, active work • Motivated, coachable team players with a strong work ethic and positive attitude • Golf interest is a plus — but genuine enthusiasm and reliability matter more than prior experience No fancy resume or perfect GPA required. If you’re ready to trade uncertainty for real skills, outdoor work, and a debt-free path to a stable, well-paying career in an industry that values dedication, we want to talk to you.
