Bicycle Guides
For spring 2012 and beyond, we’re looking for a few top-notch guides to provide our clientele with exceptional, unforgettable experiences. We’re a very young company, but our goal is to be the best in the business. We’re already the #1 rated tour on Trip Advisor for San Francisco, but you’ll be helping us get even better!
What kind of folks are we looking for? Read through the questions below. If you can answer “yes” to most of them, we’d love to hear from you.
- Do you have exceptional people skills? Can you converse with all different types of people? Are you interested in other people’s stories?
- How well do you know San Francisco? How long have you lived here? What are you most passionate about in this city? Is it the food, the bike culture, or its wild history? What about its diversity, its eccentric people, or its art?
- Do you have outdoor or urban guiding experience? If so, what is it about guiding that you love the most?
- Are you energized by quickly thinking on your feet? Can you solve problems confidently and on the fly?
- Are you willing to change bike tires, adjust brakes and shifters, and in general, get your hands dirty? Do you do most of the maintenance on your own bike? If not, are you willing to learn how?
- Are you OK with having non-traditional work hours and working weekends and holidays?
- Does working in a young, unique, fun, and growing organization appeal to you? Does it excite you that you could help us refine our day-to-day processes, offerings, and future direction?
- Are you ready to spend your working hours riding bikes around San Francisco with brand new friends from all over the world, showing off what you love most about the city?
- Do you speak fluent English? Do you speak any other languages?
We’re looking to have a few more guides fully trained and ready to go by spring. We want smart, savvy, creative, well-traveled people passionate about San Francisco and bicycles. Is that you? Then please, send us your resume along with a cover letter. Cover letters too traditional? How about a one-minute video? Feel free to be creative and show us your passion for this type of work.
Send cover letters, resumes, and all questions to jobs@sosfbiketours.com. If we think you’re a good fit, we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.
2012 will be a big year for us, and we’re really excited. It’s going to be hard work but a ton of fun. We’re looking forward to building an amazing team.
Thanks!
- Team SoSF
