About the Role
<p>The Bridges Golf & Country Club, located in Montrose, Colorado, is seeking a polished, motivated, and service-driven Lead Assistant Golf Professional to help lead the day-to-day golf operation at one of Colorado’s premier Western Slope golf facilities.</p>
<p>The Bridges is a semi-private club featuring a Nicklaus Design golf course, an engaged and growing membership, a strong tournament and league calendar, active public access, and a golf culture built around service, relationships, improvement, and community. The club is located between Grand Junction, Telluride, Crested Butte, Aspen, and the surrounding high country, offering a unique Colorado lifestyle and a golf operation with meaningful growth potential.</p>
<p>This is not an entry-level assistant role. The successful candidate will be expected to operate as a true lead assistant: visible, accountable, organized, and capable of helping set the daily tone for the golf staff, member experience, guest experience, and public-access golf operation. The position reports directly to the PGA Head Golf Professional and will play an important role in tournament operations, member programming, outside-service coordination, merchandising, instruction, club fitting, and overall golf shop leadership.</p>
<p>The ideal candidate understands the expectations of a private-club environment, while also recognizing the importance of creating a welcoming and professional experience for daily-fee guests and public-access players. This person should be comfortable working in a high-touch service setting, communicating clearly, leading by example, and helping the golf operation continue to mature.</p>
<p><strong>Position Summary<br /></strong>The Lead Assistant Golf Professional will support and help manage all key areas of the golf operation, including daily play, member services, tournament execution, retail operations, instruction, club fitting, staff leadership, and communication across departments.</p>
<p>This role requires someone who can move beyond task completion and begin thinking like a future Head Golf Professional. The right candidate will bring energy, professionalism, attention to detail, and a genuine desire to build a long-term career as a PGA Member.</p>
