Assistant Superintendent

Wannamoisett Country Club – Rumford, Rhode Island

About the Club

Wannamoisett Country Club is a private, 18-hole Donald Ross design (1914). Ross once said, “This is the best layout I have ever made.”
The club hosted the 1931 PGA Championship and annually hosts the Northeast Amateur, one of the top amateur events in the world. Ranked #2 in Rhode Island and consistently listed as a Top 100 Classic Course by Golf Digest.

The club recently completed a major renovation as part of a Master Plan with architect Andrew Green, including expanded greens, rebuilt bunkers with Better Billy Bunker, new tees, added native areas, reshaped fairways, and updated irrigation. Continued Master Plan work makes this an exciting time to join our team.
