About The Position

Your primary responsibility is to assist the real estate sales and development team with new residential projects at the Resort. Wild Spring Dunes relies on 3rd party owned homes as an important lodging option for overnight guests. Managing and exceeding real estate buyer’s expectations is of critical importance to the success of the resort. You will interface with Ownership, team members in real estate, operations, and consultant partners. The Real Estate Project Manager, with collaboration and direction from the Dream Golf Program Manager, will oversee the day-to-day progression of all aspects of the residential design and construction process ensuring delivery of projects on schedule and within budget. Property Description: Wild Spring Dunes will be a public golf resort and refuge with world-class golf, accommodations, and homesites. Two courses are routed with plans established for a short course and practice center. Set on over 2,400 sandy, secluded acres, here you will find dramatic elevation changes that highlight four distinct and diverse ecosystems: towering pines and hardwood forest, open, grassy meadows, rolling hills, and steep ravines carved by spring-fed creeks that crawl through the secluded site. Wild Spring Dunes is an escape, a destination, a place to come together in community – a home for golf and wilderness lovers alike.
