Assistant Equipment Technician
APOGEE is the vision & passion project of two highly successful businessmen, Mr. Michael Pascucci & Mr. Stephen Ross. APOGEE is a 1200-acre, high-end, private golf club with country club amenities such as a pool, spa, fitness, racquet sports & fishing. The club is located in Hobe Sound, FL & will have two clubhouses with world-class food & beverage, 50+ overnight cottages & a state-of-the-art golf performance center. It will be a club without peers in the south Florida area.
APOGEE’s golf entails three 18-hole golf courses. The West Course, designed by Gil Hanse & Jim Wagner, opened in December of 2023. The team of Tom Fazio II & Mike Davis, who also oversee the in-house golf construction team, has designed & built the South Course along with a 55-acre, 360-degree driving range, 5-acre short game area that opened in November of 2024 to rave reviews. There is also a 7-hole (short) Wee Course & a Himalayas-style putting green that is overseeded & lit for evening use in our winter/spring season.
The third 18-hole golf course (North Course) has been designed by Kyle Phillips & has just recently opened it consists of 110 acres of Tifgrand, fairway cut shortgrass. A second Short Course (12-hole) is in the grassing phase & will open in the spring of 2026.
Working with the Director of Agronomy & Equipment Director, we are excited to welcome a Assistant Equipment Technician for our recently opened North Course. Candidates must be detail orientation, a self-starter, a LEADER & not afraid to be a voice in the GCM Department.
Off site, club-provided housing is available for up to 6 months ($2500+ value)
