The National Golf Foundation (NGF) has promoted Jodi Reilly to Senior Manager of Consulting Services, recognizing her longstanding impact on the organization’s advisory work and her growing role in leading client-facing engagements across the golf industry.
Reilly brings more than 30 years of experience in golf, with a background spanning operations, consulting, and research. Prior to joining NGF in 2012, she spent 17 years in leadership roles at a range of facilities — from municipal courses to high-end daily fee and private clubs — developing expertise in operations, financial management, and long-term strategic planning.
Since joining NGF, Reilly has become a central figure in the organization’s consulting practice, contributing to and managing a broad portfolio of projects including RFPs, economic impact studies, market analyses, feasibility studies, and strategic planning initiatives for municipalities, developers, and golf facilities nationwide.
“Jodi has been a key contributor to the legacy and continued evolution of NGF Consulting,” said NGF President and CEO Greg Nathan. “She has played an integral role in delivering the insights and analysis our clients rely on long after a project is complete. Her expertise — from applying our GolfMAP system to strengthening project execution — has influenced nearly every aspect of our consulting work.”
In her new role, Reilly will work closely with NGF Senior Director of Consulting Services Richard Singer and take on expanded responsibility for leading client engagements, conducting site visits, and shaping strategic recommendations — further elevating NGF’s ability to deliver data-driven, actionable guidance to the industry.
NGF Consulting, established in 1989, is a leading independent advisory resource in golf, particularly within the municipal sector under the stewardship of Singer, a more than 30-year NGF veteran and the industry’s foremost expert in the space. Reilly’s promotion reflects the organization’s continued investment in strengthening its consulting capabilities and expanding its impact at a time when public golf facilities are being reimagined as both community assets and sustainable business operations.
