Golf Club Management is one of the most rewarding jobs but if you are considering going into Club Management, I would recommend that (1) you like golf and (2) like helping people and customer service. Training is vital as there are so many aspects to running a golf club. There are 2 organisations that I would recommend; The Club Managers Association of Ireland (CMAI) and The Club Managers Association of Europe (CMAE). CMAE have training programmes and you can also obtain your Club Managers Diploma and your CCM (Certified Club Manager) after completion of the programme.
The CCM is recognised all over the world and CCM managers are favourably looked upon when job applications are reviewed. They can also achieve higher salaries than a manager with no qualifications.
Check out the CMAE website for up & coming training programmes here and the CMAI website for Irish educational programmes here
If you are a club in need of a manager, I can assist you for a short period of time. I can also ensure you hire the right person for the job. In the interim, we can work together to achieve some goals for your club.
