Assistant Superintendent

Together, We're More!

Join the Loraloma at Thomas Ranch Team, the first-of-its-kind development of a 2,200-acre inspired master-planned community that aims to renew the relationship between land and people. The ideal candidate is a self-starting, detail-oriented, effective communicator, who will lead with integrity, and professionalism. 

Loraloma is an exclusive private club that sits within the greater Thomas Ranch development. The 18-hole championship golf course is being designed by noted golf course architect David McLay-Kidd. The fairways and tees are being sodded with Stadium zoysia, the roughs are being sodded with Zeon zoysia, and the USGA greens are being sprigged with Lazer zoysia. This presents a unique opportunity for a growing turfgrass manager to gain valuable experience maintaining the latest and greatest zoysia varieties.
