About the role

Starter/Ranger at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort, responsible for greeting guests, maintaining pace of play, delivering on-course knowledge, protecting the course, and upholding resort standards to ensure a memorable guest experience.

Responsibilities

  • Set the tone from the first tee. You’ll greet every group with a warm welcome, share key course information, and make sure golfers are set up for a great round — bags secured, scorecards in hand, local rules covered.
  • Keep the round moving. You’ll monitor pace of play and turn times, keep the golf shop and your ranger colleagues in the loop, and when groups need a nudge to speed up, you’ll handle it with professionalism and good judgment.
  • Help golfers get the most out of the course. From yardage markers to Turnstands, you’ll share the kind of on-course knowledge that makes someone’s round better.
  • Protect the course. You’ll remind players to replace divots, repair ball marks, and rake bunkers — keeping our courses in the condition our guests expect.
  • Keep your area dialed in. The starter’s area reflects the resort. You’ll maintain a clean, organized workspace and carry yourself in a way that matches the Bandon Dunes standard.
  • Be ready for anything. You’ll know emergency procedures and equipment locations, and you’ll respond calmly if a situation on the course calls for it.

Qualifications

  • You know and love golf. You’re familiar with the rules of golf and course etiquette — enough that guests trust you when they have questions.
  • You’re a natural with people. You can hold a conversation with a first-time golfer and a scratch player in the same hour. You’re warm, patient, and good at reading what someone needs from an interaction.
  • You stay steady under pressure. Pace-of-play management, variable weather, and unexpected situations come with this role. You handle multiple things at once without losing your composure or your professionalism.
  • You’re available when golf happens. This role includes weekdays, weekends, and varying hours — which is the nature of working at a resort. A valid Oregon Driver’s License with a clean driving record is required.
  • You bring the right attitude. A high school diploma or equivalent is preferred. More than credentials, we’re looking for someone who takes pride in their work and genuinely wants to make guests’ rounds memorable.
