SPORTS FIELD SOLUTIONS IS SEEKING A:
Sports Turf Manager
To maintain immaculate sports fields at Texas A&M San Antonio.
Are you passionate about crafting flawless playing surfaces? Do you feel at home on a perfectly maintained field, knowing that your attention to detail sets the stage for champions? At Sports Field Solutions (SFS), we’re obsessed with turning ordinary fields into professional-grade masterpieces—and we need a Sports Turf Manager to make that happen.
WHO YOU ARE
Sports Enthusiast: You’ve always loved the game, but even more, you’ve been drawn to the fields themselves. You know the difference between a ¾” height of cut and a ½” and the precision it takes to maintain perfect infield edges.
Detail-Oriented Professional: Perfection is your baseline. While others admire your work, you’re already focused on the minor adjustments needed to improve the field even more.
Collaborative: While you can handle tasks on your own, you thrive in a team setting, where you can contribute to building a premium brand and exceptional playing surfaces.
WHO WE ARE
We love sports fields. How much? As much as Texas loves its high school football. That's a lot. We know that the difference between feeling like a professional athlete and a high school walk-on is often the quality of the playing surface. We love nothing more than the glimmer of stadium lights on a freshly-cut, pristine natural grass playing surface. Finally, we believe that great people transform businesses. We provide a vision and then ask our people to creatively use their talents to achieve it.
