Qualified Level 2 Greenkeeper at Village: More Than a Job, It's a Movement!

Are you ready to join a place where your unique spark is celebrated, and teams are encouraged to make a difference every single day?

We're not corporate. We're not stuffy. We're a Village. Right now, we're looking for an enthusiastic and meticulous Greenkeeper to ensure our golf course and estate grounds remain spectacular, playable, and pristine year-round.

The Role: Your Contribution to the Village

Reporting directly to the Golf Course & Estates Manager and the Deputy Head Greenkeeper, you will be the guardian of our greens. You will carry out all golf course and grounds maintenance work to our exacting departmental standards, ensuring a flawless experience for every golfer and guest.

The 'bones' of what you'll be doing are about:

The Turf Expert: Preparing the course for play through switching, brushing, mowing, scarifying, aerating, and irrigating. You'll handle top dressing, turf conditioning, divot repairs, and full turf renovation.
The Estate Guardian: Managing all aspects of garden maintenance around the property, including weed and moss identification, disease control, and monitoring the estate for potential issues (like unstable trees).
The Machinery Master: Safely operating specialized machinery, carrying out basic daily checks, and reporting any faults or stock shortages to ensure everything functions perfectly.
The Specialist: Carrying out the spraying of pesticides and herbicides (if you hold PA1, PA2, and PA6 qualifications) and undertaking additional maintenance, such as chainsaw work on trees, lakes, and ponds (if qualified).
The Ambassador: Assisting guests in a friendly, efficient manner, while confidently advising the Supervisor on duty if golfers are breaking course rules and etiquette.

Our Mantra: It Takes a Village

This isn't just a saying: it's how we operate. We believe that the best hospitality and the most exceptional experiences come from a collective effort.

Safety First, Always: You'll be a champion of Health & Safety legislation, strictly adhering to COSHH hazard data sheets and departmental risk assessments.
Team Collaboration: You will maintain great working relationships with all hotel colleagues and assist management in keeping operating expenses down by carefully controlling the use of materials.
Continuous Growth: You will actively attend and participate in departmental meetings and vital training sessions, including Fire Training, Manual Handling, and H&S.
Pride in Appearance: You will meet our high departmental standards for personal presentation and uniform at all times.

The Village Perks: What's In It For You?

We're in the people business, and that includes our own team. We offer:

The Great Outdoors: A dynamic, active working environment where your hard work is immediately visible across our beautiful estate.
A Package that Cares: A competitive salary, great benefits, and complimentary access to our Leisure Club and Gym.
Unrivalled Work/Life Energy: We're serious about your time off and providing a schedule that allows you to recharge.

Ready to Join Village as our Greenkeeper?

If you have a passion for the outdoors, a keen eye for detail, and the drive to maintain a top-tier golf course, we want to hear from you.

To be successful, you will bring:

Course & Grounds Experience: Hands-on experience in turf maintenance, course preparation, and general course/grounds upkeep.

Relevant Qualifications: Holding PA1, PA2, and PA6 spraying certificates is highly desirable. Chainsaw qualifications are a fantastic bonus!
Mechanical Savvy: The ability to safely use, check, and perform basic maintenance on a variety of groundskeeping machinery.
A Proactive, Safe Approach: A strong understanding of Health & Safety and COSHH regulations, with the vigilance to spot and report hazards or equipment faults immediately.
