Superintendent

Designed by architect Stephen Young (Grey Silo), Batteaux Creek opened for play in 2002, and covers over 250 acres. His design features manicured bent grass fairways, oversized true rolling greens, and hazards in the form of plentiful bunkers, naturalized areas, lakes, and ponds.  These all conspire to create numerous risk/reward opportunities – and like all Young designs, playing for Bogey is a pretty safe path, but challenging the course for birdies often results in doubles or worse.  More information about Batteaux Creek can be found at www.golfnorth.ca/batteauxcreek/

The Superintendent will be responsible for all golf course and grounds maintenance.  They will work in partnership with the Clubhouse Manager, and report directly to the GolfNorth Head Office.  This is an excellent opportunity for a Superintendent who can work independently and to a budget.
