Old Shores Winter/Summer Intern
Job Details
We're looking for Winter or Summer Interns to be part of something special: shaping and maintaining a Tom Doak golf experience unlike any other. This isn't just mowing grass—it's bringing a course to life and keeping it at its best. You'll work alongside an experienced team through every phase—from grow-in to full operation—ensuring the land is cared for, and the turf performs at the highest level. One day, you might be sodding fairways. The next, you're watering by hand to keep dust down or prepping greens for their morning cut. This is work for those who love the outdoors, don't mind getting their hands dirty, and want to see the impact of their work every day.
Property Description:
Located in Florida’s panhandle, just inland from the gulf’s sugar sand beaches, Old Shores will be a new community anchored by golf – a refuge, with world-class courses, accommodations, and homesites. Located just 30 minutes north of Panama City Beach, the land will serve as a peaceful, secluded escape. The bluffs and moss-draped oaks of Old Shores form an inviting and natural setting for a walking village that opens to the unspoiled golf sites, forests, and sandhill lakes for fishing and exploring. This new expression of golf by Michael Keiser Jr will change the way people look at Florida.
Old Shores is a coastal public golf destination offering daily-fee play, limited Founderships, and a curated real estate offering set against a distinctive natural landscape. The property is purpose-built for golfers and coastal lifestyle enthusiasts who want world-class golf, to respect the land, and to connect with others in a meaningful way.
What You’ll Do:
- Support turf grow-in and ongoing course maintenance across tees, fairways, and greens
- Hand-pick sticks and debris to keep playing surfaces clean and playable (because details matter)
- Manage irrigation and hand-water to control dust, support turf establishment, and maintain playing conditions
- Fertilize, seed, and nurture turf through grow-in and into peak playing condition
- Mow and maintain turf to course standards as grow-in progresses and play increases
- Work outside in all kinds of weather—because nature doesn't take a day off
- Adapt seamlessly between grow-in responsibilities and full maintenance operations as the resort evolves
- Perform daily maintenance tasks on the golf course, grounds, maintenance facility, and clubhouse as assigned
- Handle equipment safely whether in an active grow-in environment or routine maintenance operations
- Other duties as needed and assigned
