If you enjoy working with people and get excited about supporting the growing community of bicycle commuters in the Bay Area, then this might be a good opportunity for you.
BikeHub is a small, Bay-Area-based company, focused on supporting bicycle commuters and anyone who uses bikes as transportation. Our BART Bike Stations are a project by BART and the city to provide free, secure public bicycle parking. BikeHub’s repair business and retail sales help offset operating costs.
We're hiring a part-time valet to cover shifts at our Uptown Oakland, Downtown Berkeley, and Fruitvale locations when our regular staff is off. Shifts typically run from 7am to 11am or 3pm to 7pm, Monday through Friday, with no weekend work required. The starting pay is $18.62 per hour, but we're willing to start someone with relevant bicycle experience at a higher wage. While this role is initially for fill-in work, there may be opportunities for a regular position in the future for the right fit.
The Bike Valet primarily parks and retrieves bikes, and may also assist patrons with sales, product questions, and minor repairs. Part-time positions get PTO and a generous employee discount. If you're interested in learning to work on bikes or in the bike industry - this is a great way to get a start!
