Applications to work at the 2027 Masters are open through Dec. 1, but the commitment extends beyond the tournament’s four competitive rounds: applicants must be available April 3 through April 11, and the official hiring site says workdays can run 10 to 14 hours.
For Augusta-area residents weighing the seasonal work against another job, school or family responsibilities, a public information session is scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 12, from 3 to 6 p.m. at the HUB for Community Innovation, 631 Chafee Ave.
According to The Augusta Chronicle’s Nov. 2 report, attendees can speak with Masters representatives about opportunities in hospitality, concessions and merchandise. The official Masters jobs website provides the applications and detailed requirements.
The time commitment comes first
The required dates cover the Augusta National Women’s Amateur final round, the Drive, Chip and Putt National Finals and Masters week.
Daily hours and start times vary by role. Specific schedules arrive during onboarding.
Orientation or training may also be required before the assignment begins. The restroom-attendant and daytime sandwich-preparation postings both list mandatory orientation and training, along with department schedules that may include weekends, holidays and overtime.
Those requirements make the shift assignment and training dates important questions for anyone arranging child care, transportation or time away from another employer.
Pay depends on the position
The hiring site does not advertise one pay rate for all tournament jobs. Applicants can review compensation in each detailed posting before applying.
Two current examples are restroom attendant and daytime sandwich preparation, each listed at $14 an hour. That rate should not be treated as the pay for every opening.
The restroom role includes cleaning and sanitizing facilities, replenishing supplies, removing trash and assisting guests. The sandwich-preparation role includes preparing food, setting up and breaking down workstations, and keeping equipment and work areas sanitary. Previous culinary experience and relevant training are preferred for the sandwich role.
Both postings describe bending, stooping and lifting or transporting objects up to 30 pounds, as well as extended periods of sitting or standing. Applicants should read the requirements for the particular position they choose.
Choose one application
Only one application will remain active. The official FAQ says that when someone applies for multiple positions, the first application stays active and additional applications become inactive.
The site’s eligibility notice requires applicants to be at least 16 on or before March 26, 2027, or their first day of employment, whichever comes first. Applicants must also be eligible to work in the United States and successfully pass a background check. Individual jobs can have additional requirements.
Before accepting an offer, applicants should clarify the exact shift, training dates and whether training is paid, overtime treatment, breaks, employee parking or transportation arrangements, and any uniform items they must provide. The public FAQ does not settle all those details.
Use Thursday’s HUB session to ask those questions before choosing a role. Review the individual posting as well as the general hiring requirements so the eventual offer fits the work and schedule you can take on.
