About The Position

Topgolf is where golf meets a great time. We're a high-energy sports entertainment venue where every shift is different, every guest brings their own energy, and the people who work here make it all happen. If you're looking for a place to grow, have fun, and be part of something bigger than a job description, you're in the right place. Are you someone who loves making people feel welcome from the first second they walk through the door? Do you thrive on first impressions, know how to move with urgency, and genuinely enjoy helping guests get excited about their visit? Can you navigate a bay assignment system, explain the game with enthusiasm, and handle transactions accurately all while keeping a smile on your face? We’re looking for a Guest Services Associate who sets the tone for the entire guest experience before a single ball is hit. You’ll be the first face guests see — greeting them, getting them checked in, explaining the game, and sending them to their bay ready to have the best time. If you love people, love energy, and love being the reason someone’s visit starts great, this is your role. The Guest Services Associate is the first point of contact for every guest at Topgolf. You’ll use the game and bay assignment systems to get guests checked in quickly, offer memberships and retail items, assist with golf clubs and equipment, and make sure every guest understands the game and feels genuinely excited to play. This role requires speed, warmth, and a guest-first mindset from start to finish. This role requires a flexible schedule including evenings, weekends, and holidays, with availability to work during peak periods, special events, and high-volume seasons.
