Sun City Country Club is looking for an exceptional golf industry professional ready to take the next significant step in their career.

Reporting directly to the General Manager, the Director of Golf will lead the Club’s Golf Operations, people, Pro Shop and retail, competitions, events, member experience and golf development.

We are looking for more than an experienced golf operator. We are looking for a future industry leader.

Someone who understands golf, can lead and develop people, brings ideas rather than waiting for them, understands the commercial side of the business and wants to continue developing broader management and leadership capability.

In return, Sun City will provide genuine responsibility, autonomy and a strong commitment to the successful applicant’s education, professional development and career growth.

Located in Yanchep, approximately 45 minutes north of Perth, Sun City Country Club provides an outstanding golfing environment for more than 800 golf members and the growing surrounding community.

The Club features an 18-hole golf course recognised among Australia’s Top 100 Public Access Courses, together with a large grass driving range, chipping area and putting green.

With Golf Operations now under direct Club management, Sun City is entering an exciting new phase with opportunities to further develop our member experience, Pro Shop, events, golf development programmes and broader golf services.
