St Andrews separating the farmland and the dunes of the beach was ideal for golf and in 1552 Archbishop Hamilton issued a Charter formally recognising the right of the people of St Andrews to use the Links for golf.

Over centuries a recognised routing with set holes took shape and by 1764 18 holes were established becoming the standard bearer for the game wherever it is played.

Over the next 250 years St Andrews Links would be transformed undertaking a dramatic transformation of the golfing landscape with seven further golf courses four clubhouses a state-of-the-art Golf Academy and six official stores all making it the most renowned golf complex in the world.

If you love golf then there is no better place to work however that isnt essential to be a success here. As a custodian of the Links we dont need you to be a golfer we simply need you to be brilliant at what you do and appreciate the game.
