Job Description
What we look for in an assistant superintendent at Quaker Ridge is a person whose future goal is to become a superintendent. They should be a motivated individual that can observe and improve on fine details that accumulate to the greater vision of the golf course. Assistant superintendents should be able to understand the golf course’s daily requirements to be able to delegate tasks to crew members to achieve those needs. An understanding of chemical control and application to plant pathogens, insects, and weeds is highly valued. During the heat of the season hand watering will be essential to maintaining healthy turf while providing the firmest conditions achievable.
