Ever wanted to work at Augusta National? Here’s your chance…

This is not a drill. Repeat: this is not a drill.

Augusta National, the iconic home of The Masters, is looking to add to its staff – and YOU could be the ideal candidate. 

The Georgia club is recruiting a horticulturist to join its growing (no pun intended) ‘Horticulture Team’. 

According to the job description, the successful applicant “will provide support and guidance to the Nursery department to include pruning recommendations, chemical applications and landscape improvements through proven, sound horticulture practices to ensure the landscape is maintained at the highest standard.”

• Bob MacIntyre has Ryder Cup ‘in my sights’

• Major champion wary over the return of fans

• Monty teams up with bunkered Golf Breaks

More specifically, their main responsibilities will include assisting with the development and care of pruning strategies; ordering, scheduling and maintenance of all plant material associated with the annual and tournament flower programme; and daily scouting of the landscape plant material to identify pruning, replacement and maintenance needs.
