Part-Time Showroom Coordinator   

This is a special opportunity to get involved with San Francisco’s hometown cycling brand. If you’re personable, passionate about bikes, detail-oriented, love bikes (wait, did i already say that), this job is for you. 

Dear future team member, 

• Do you like bikes? (This one is kind of mandatory)
• Do you wish your job wasn't so corporate?
• Are you open to teaching people how fun cycling in the SF / Bay Area can be?
• Want to learn more than you ever thought you'd know about cycling apparel?
• If you've always wanted a job where you get to work around your passion/hobby (riding bikes), this might be a perfect opportunity for you.

Who is Ornot?

We are a small, but mighty, cycling apparel company based in San Francisco with much of our clothing produced right here in California. Check out what we've been up to lately on our instagram and website.

Our mission is to create sustainable cycling apparel and accessories that are made to last. The company was founded in 2013 to create minimally branded cycling apparel. This was a reaction to the lazy, logo-driven design that had dominated the cycling industry for years along with the “rules” associated with how to be a "cyclist". Now that many brands have followed suit with minimal branding, and placing an emphasis on the fun, casual side of cycling, our additional focuses on sustainability and responsible business practices are what truly make us stand out. We are always evaluating our supply chain, fabric choices, and production partners. We're proud to be the first, and only 1 of 2 Climate Neutral Certified cycling apparel brands. We hope that other companies continue to follow our lead.

Opportunity

Join our small but mighty team as a part time team member! First and foremost, you will become a part of our team. This specific position revolves around working in our current retail store and transitioning to our new (it’s still being built next door) showroom in the Inner Richmond. That means you will be responsible for stocking, merchandising, and working in a customer-facing roll. You will also be in a unique position to interact with the local cycling community and help share the love of riding bikes.

Skills

We are looking for:

• People skills / outgoing / a natural conversationalist. You will be interacting with people, so this one is pretty important. We have great espresso machine to help out. 
• Self-starter and finisher. You'll be responsible for keeping the showroom clean and functioning during your shift.
• People would describe you as incredibly organized. You can't stand a mess and are always looking for opportunities to make things better.
• Details are very important. Execution and attention to detail should be part of your professional persona.
• Tech Savvy. Because it's 2024 our tools are also online. You'll get to learn our systems and our tools (they're all user-friendly).
• Must be able to work weekends. 
• This position is local in our showroom here in SF (just to be 100% clear).
• Bike rides! We host weekly rides from our store and would like your help.

Responsibilities

• Greet and assist customers.
• End of day restock of items sold throughout the day and price tagging items brought onto the floor.

Thanks for making it this far, writing job postings is not my favorite activity, I'd rather be riding.
