Subpar Mini Golf - Greenskeeper $40/hr part time (<12hrs/wk)
compensation: Starting minimum pay $40/hr
employment type: part time
job title: Greenskeeper @ Subpar Mini Golf
Subpar Miniature Golf is currently hiring a Greenskeeper/handyperson to join the team!
We are looking for someone to keep our golf courses and facilities looking their best- we get thousands of golfers in our space every year, and we arm each one with a club and a ball to smash against our custom artwork and walls for an hour.
As you can imagine this often leaves us with some damaged art!
An ideal Greenskeeper will have familiarity with a variety of materials (wood, concrete, plastic, fiberglass, some metal) and the techniques to maintain and patch work in those media. Any familiarity with LED lighting systems would help, but we are happy to teach you how to do each of these if you can.
WHO WE ARE
The best handmade indoor mini golf courses in the Bay Area! Our goal is to provide a lot of fun, and a little competitive action with our East Bay themed mini golf course and arcade.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Inspect golf course and supporting infrastructure (golf stands, seating, etc) for repair needs
Patch/repair broken golf fixtures and terrain
Repair/replace damaged walls, golf stands, seating, turf
Repair LED lighting systems on the course (we can train you on these)
Providing a clean finish ready for paint (painting will be completed by our course painter)
Media
Our course models are mostly paints wood, so most work there involves wood filler and sanding.
Some of the detail work on the course is made of plastic or metal
Scenery (hills etc.) are often made of stucco over wood/lath covered in fiberglass.
Our terrain/berm walls are plywood and 2x4 structures that may require adjusting and repair.
The terf is a nylon plastic that cleans up easy, but often frays and needs trimming.
Most of our scenery has LED lights for our night golf feature (glow golf), and connections often break.
We have a decent set of tools, but you may use yours if you prefer, and we can purchase additional tools for you to use if needed for a project. All materials for repair would be paid for by Subpar.
