APEX, N.C. — Today, the Golf Business Network announced that Bob Ford, PGA Head Professional at Oakmont Country Club and Seminole Golf Club, will be joining their team as Lead Industry Consultant effective immediately.
Ford is widely considered the preeminent club professional in America. His primary role with GBN will be in the Golf Professional Search and Placement Services. “If you set out to describe the ideal golf professional, you couldn’t select a more fitting person as a role model than Bob Ford,” Arnold Palmer once remarked. Company leadership expects this partnership to increase the career advancement opportunities available through GBN. “Overnight Bob’s experience and world-wide industry network advances the credibility of our placement services and expands what we can offer clubs,” said Golf Business Network President and CEO Patrick Seither.
Ford, in addition to Lead Industry Consultant will be an active member and ambassador of GBN. “It’s great to be involved again with this organization. I’m pleased to see the development in the services GBN offers to the PGA Professional. I look forward to working with Patrick and his team,” says Ford.
