Combining golf games with high-quality food and beverage services, events, and entertainment, Topgolf has created vibrant venues that attract diverse guests seeking fun and engaging social experiences. With a presence across multiple locations, Topgolf offers thriving career opportunities for individuals passionate about customer service, team leadership, and operations management. The company’s venues are dynamic, high-energy, and often high-volume, emphasizing performance, teamwork, and visible results.

Topgolf is currently seeking to hire an Assistant General Manager who will play a crucial leadership role within their venue operations. The company values leaders who proactively earn their authority through dedication and accountability every day. This role is not just supportive; it demands someone who leads with intention, constantly monitors performance metrics, fosters team engagement, and provides exceptional guest experiences. The Assistant General Manager is expected to anticipate challenges, coach staff to prevent performance decline, and embody a standard of excellence above and beyond expectation.

The Assistant General Manager position is a gateway to further leadership growth, designed for those who aspire to become a General Manager and are committed to hands-on management. This role requires a deep understanding of business operations, including sales, expense forecasting, staffing, safety, and guest satisfaction. You will oversee department managers responsible for all key business functions such as food and beverage, golf services, events, facilities, and guest experience, ensuring smooth and efficient operations. Autonomy in decision-making, accountability for venue performance, and a visible leadership presence on the floor are critical to success in this role.

In an environment characterized by high volume and guest interaction, flexibility is key. The Assistant General Manager must be available to work evenings, weekends, holidays, and extended hours during peak seasons or special events. This schedule supports the need to maintain excellent service standards and operational excellence regardless of the time or demand.

This role also requires a strong commitment to team development. The ideal candidate will coach and invest in their team, from department managers to frontline staff, to cultivate leadership skills and maintain high morale. Effective delegation, clear communication, and consistent follow-up are essential to meet operational goals. The AGM champions a culture of hospitality, using guest feedback and operational data to continuously enhance the customer experience.

Moreover, representing the Topgolf brand and engaging with the community through partnerships, special events, and local outreach is a vital part of the role, reflecting the brand’s core values of fun, teamwork, excellence, courage, and caring.

Overall, this is a demanding yet rewarding position for a dynamic leader eager to advance their career within a prominent entertainment company that values innovation, inclusion, and results.
