Who we are
OurSquamish is a community non-profit dedicated to enhancing Squamish’s urban public spaces for a lively, inclusive, sustainable, safe & healthy Squamish. Through people-driven projects, education, and advocacy, we are committed to building equitable public spaces that support the diversity of our community.
Last summer we launched a Bike Valet social enterprise. By offering a Bike Valet service, free for attendees at local events, we provide a secure and reliable place for event-goers to store their bikes while they enjoy the fun. This summer's events include: Loggers Fest, Arc’teryx Climbing Academy, Squamish Arts Fest and more!
What does a Bike Valet Operator (you!) do?
You ensure the smooth running of the Bike Valet service – from coordinating with local event planners and conducting site visits before the event, to managing the set-up and tear down of the Bike Valet gear, communicating with volunteers and fostering a fun work environment for the Bike Valet crew, and, of course, park bikes. Most Bike Valet events are scheduled during weekends, this position is required to manage the service on those scheduled dates. The rest of the work week’s tasks will be completed remotely and on your own schedule. You will work closely with the Executive Director to create a work plan, and will be supported by the Community Engagement Coordinator and members of the Board.
