The posting

Overview

Get Golfing CIO is an ambitious charity dedicated to making golf accessible to everyone. We own and operate 13 golf facilities across England, welcoming over 12,000 members and 160,000 visitors annually, and accommodating 600,000 rounds of golf per year. As a £25m revenue organisation with 600 passionate team members, every penny of profit is reinvested into improving our venues, developing our people, and supporting community-focused charitable initiatives.

With significant investment in a new Spike Bar, The Arkley 9 is evolving into a vibrant community and hospitality hub that can seamlessly host members, guests, societies, and private events at the same time.

We are seeking an exceptional General Manager; someone commercially astute, operationally sharp, and an outstanding people leader, to take The Arkley 9 into its next phase of growth.
