Property Description: Broomsedge Golf Club is one of the most talked-about new golf destinations in America. Located in Rembert, South Carolina and near the town of Camden, South Carolina the oldes inland town in South Carolina. The course is in the same sandy, pine-framed terrain that underlies Pinehurst two hours to the north - Broomsedge opened in October 2024 to immediate national acclaim, earning runner-up honors in Golf Digest's Best New Private course awards in 2025.
Designed by Mike Koprowski and Kyle Franz, the course is a minimalist, lay-of-the-land layout of unusual character: animated hollows and gullies, dramatic elevation changes, visually striking bunkering, and a routing that rewards both skill and imagination. It has all the makings of a world class golf course and draws comparisons to the great courses of the British Isles in spirit.
From its beginning, Broomsedge has operated as a private club that opens its gates to outside play - a rarity at the top tier of American golf. Under new majority owner and CEO Baker Thompson, with Michael Keiser Jr. serving as senior advisor, the club is formalizing and expanding this "welcoming private club" model - members-first, but with curated access for guests who share a love of the game at its finest.
The club is currently in an active build-out phase, with four-bedroom cottages for members and guests and a food and beverage venue overlooking the golf course under development, with a second golf course planned to follow. Broomsedge sits within two hours of Charlotte and 45 minutes from Columbia. It is a young club with deep roots, a bold vision, and a rare sense of purpose.

Position Purpose: Broomsedge Golf Club is seeking its founding General Manager - a rare chance to step into one of the most exciting early-stage golf destinations in the country and help shape what it becomes.
This is not a caretaker role. It is a builder's role. The golf course is already exceptional and the vision is clear. Now Broomsedge needs a leader who can translate that vision into an operating reality - building the culture, the team, the member and guest experience, and the hospitality infrastructure from the ground up.
The General Manager will be the on-site face of Broomsedge to its members, guests, and community. They will work in close collaboration with club ownership and senior operations leadership to execute on the club's growth plans, uphold its values, and bring the Broomsedge experience to life at every touchpoint.
The General Manager will serve as the senior on-site leader of Broomsedge Golf Club, responsible for daily operations, member and guest experience, team development, and financial performance. This person will be a hands-on, values-led operator who understands the culture of authentic, unpretentious, world-class golf - and who is energized by the challenge of building something meaningful from the ground up.
Broomsedge is at a pivotal moment. The course has earned its reputation. Now the club is investing in hospitality, membership, and programming infrastructure to support its next chapter. The General Manager will be a central figure in that evolution, with direct access to experienced operational and strategic leadership to support their success.
