Then you should keep reading…….

Actually, maybe it is better to call it an experience…a once in a lifetime opportunity to do something really cool with your life that will take you to one of the most beautiful places in the world to have the chance to be surrounded by like minded people who are passionate about creating extraordinary experiences for our guests and for our team.

Kananaskis Country Golf Course is quite simply a special and different place. Literally and figuratively, it is a breath of fresh air. What makes it so special? Certainly, our setting doesn’t hurt! We are located in the middle of the spectacular Canadian Rockies about 55 minutes west of Calgary and 45 minutes from Banff; paradise if you are the kind of person who enjoys a fun environment surrounded by nature, tremendous hiking, kayaking, rollerblading, and camping. But the setting doesn’t even begin to tell our story. The secret to this special place for over 35 years has been our team! Incredible people like you who understand the power of connection and paying attention to the details that show people that you #makethetime for them!

So, what do you think so far? Does this place sound interesting? Is your gut telling you to read on and find out more about what we are looking for? Is it intrigued by the fact that this job posting isn’t like most others that you have read before? Let me tell you the gist of what we are looking for. In a nutshell, we need givers - not takers. We need people who crave connection, are passionate about people, love being busy, and aren’t scared to get off their phone and try something new…

Our CULTURE is something we call #makethetime. It is our rallying cry, our mantra, and our reason for being in business. What does it mean and why is it so important to you? Two reasons:

1. Have you ever made someone feel special, appreciated or acknowledged? That feeling that you get inside when you go above and beyond for someone and how good it makes you feel is what we are all about. How can we teach you how to do this more? Because I am sure you would like to feel this way everyday! Well, we have literally HUNDREDS of opportunities everyday to get this juice. And we want to give you the tools and put you in a position to do it!

2. There are so many distractions in this world that take you away from the things that are most important. We want to teach you to put your phone down and have experiences in real life that you will remember forever. Those moments that make you say, I want to do this again, soon! To learn how to #makethetime for you and give you energy. This all starts by surrounding yourself with people like you in a new environment so you can explore and try new things.

A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS…(actually a million)

K-team life - We can go on and on about how great it is to be a member of our family but instead why don’t we just show you?
