About the Role
<h2>Who We Are</h2>
<p>Rodeo Dunes is a new destination golf resort set on the high plains of Colorado,. Built on a landscape defined by sand, wind, and wide-open horizons, Rodeo Dunes has opened a Coore & Crenshaw golf course to Founder play – public play begins in 2027 – and will feature multiple world-class golf courses, future short course offerings, practice facilities, lodging, and an integrated residential community. Located less than an hour from Denver International Airport, Denver metro area Fort Collins and Colorado Springs, Rodeo Dunes offers the rare opportunity to help build a world-class golf destination while enjoying access to one of America’s fastest-growing and most vibrant regions.</p>
<p>A public golf destination developed by Michael Keiser, co-owner of Sand Valley Resort, Rodeo Dunes is set on over 4,000 acres of towering sand dunes reminiscent of the southwest coast of Ireland, Rodeo Dunes is set to attract golfers from around the U.S. and the world. In addition to the Coore & Crenshaw design, a second course, marking the first 18-hole design by Jimmy Craig (designer of the Commons at Sand Valley) is currently under construction, with some preview play expected in 2027. Public play begins in 2027.</p>
<p>With a rollicking, sandy dunes-cape, welcoming Western hospitality, and inspiring long views of the Rocky Mountains, Rodeo Dunes will introduce guests to a historic - but new to many - region of Colorado.</p>
<p>This is not traditional resort golf. Rodeo Dunes is being created with a focus on <strong>walking golf, caddie programs, simplicity, and authenticity</strong>, where the experience is driven as much by the people and culture as it is by the golf itself. Rodeo Dunes will become a place where guests return year after year, not just for the amazing golf, but for the feeling of being part of something real. </p>
<p>The ownership team believes that great golf destinations are built around authenticity, humility, stewardship of the land, and unforgettable hospitality. Decisions are made with a long-term perspective, prioritizing experience and culture over short-term gains.</p>
<p>Rodeo Dunes joins a growing collection of destinations that includes Sand Valley (WI), Wild Spring Dunes (TX), and Old Shores (FL).</p>
<h2>Your role</h2>
<p>As General Manager, you will inspire, develop and lead the world class Rodeo Dunes golf experience from the ground up, shaping not only the operations, but the identity of the property itself. You will be responsible for building a culture rooted in hospitality, humility, and excellence, while delivering a golf experience that stands among the best in the world. This is a role for a strong service orientated operator and visionary, who will focus on driving memorable guest service experiences, foster innovation, while simultaneously inspiring, coaching and building high performing teams. The GM will have a collaborative style across all teams, both internally and externally, including working closely with ownership, management and other community stakeholders.</p>
