Golf Course Maintenance

Cottonwood Golf & Country Club is a privately owned 18-hole course located just 15 minutes south of Calgary. We are now hiring full-time and part-time seasonal turf care team members for the 2026 season.

You do not need golf or turf experience to apply. We train everything — because we believe strong character, work ethic, and attitude matter more than past experience.

At Cottonwood, you’ll work outdoors, be trusted with real responsibility, and be part of a respectful, supportive team that takes pride in what they do.
