Interlachen Country Club is now accepting internship applications for the 2025 season! We’re coming off a very successful reopening of the recent renovation project led by Andrew Green and we, as a team, are thrilled to continue to develop playing conditions to our members that are unmatched. Come join our team as we are actively learning every day opportunities to streamline maintenance, improve playability throughout the grounds post renovation, and capture the details that continue to set Interlachen Country Club as one of the top courses in the nation.
Internships will include daily course and grounds maintenance of the newly restored golf course, while understanding the importance of the many agronomical practices we engage in on a daily basis. Educational opportunities will be tailored to each person’s goals and experience, creating a truly personalized and memorable learning opportunity.
Unique to Interlachen, our interns across multiple departments participate in “Future Leaders” programming, relevant topics taught by the best within the club management industry. We’ve seen firsthand how these cross department relationships started at ICC Future Leaders have proven invaluable later in careers both within the gates of Interlachen and throughout the nation. We’ll help develop your network within the industry!
The goal of our internship program is to challenge each intern to grow both as a person and as a professional. Upon completion of the internship program, interns will be prepared and empowered to advance to the next step in their career. Students who have previously completed the internship program have gone on to hold top tier positions throughout the country, as well as management positions within our own team. The most successful candidates will be motivated, curious self-starters looking to grow in the golf course and grounds industry.
