Senior Assistant Superintendent

A Better Place to Build Your Career

Salisbury Country Club is seeking a positive, motivated golf course maintenance professional who wants to contribute ideas, strengthen leadership skills, and help deliver outstanding playing conditions.

Our 27-hole facility offers a very active membership and provides valuable agronomic experience across bentgrass greens and warm-season zoysia and bermudagrass playing surfaces. Managing these grasses requires different agronomic strategies and offers an opportunity to develop a well-rounded understanding of turf management. We're also planning more than $24 million in infrastructure improvements over the next 10 years.

We believe great course conditions start with a great team. A degree isn't required. We value practical experience, a strong work ethic, and a positive attitude, and we're committed to supporting employees who want to continue their education and develop their skills.

Why Join Salisbury?

- A club built for the future: Salisbury is financially strong, carries no debt, and has a waiting list for membership.

- Meaningful investment: More than $24 million in planned infrastructure improvements over the next 10 years will help shape the future of the facility.

- Diverse agronomic experience: Gain exposure to bentgrass, zoysia, and bermudagrass, each requiring different approaches to fertility, irrigation, mowing, growth regulation, and pest management.

- A voice in how we work: We welcome fresh ideas, new approaches, and thoughtful improvements to traditional maintenance practices.

- A positive team culture: Our PRIDE values—Positivity, Respect, Integrity, Dependability, and Enthusiasm—guide how we work together.

Key Responsibilities
