The Opportunity
 
Are you an ambitious, highly organized leader who thrives in a fast-paced environment? We are looking for an Operations Lead to drive the daily success of our Whistler location.

This role is crafted for a hands-on executor - someone eager to jump in, lead from the front, and continuously optimize our shop floor. You don’t need to know everything on day one; you just need the drive to learn it. Backed by our HQ support team, you will be empowered to focus on what you do best: leading the local team, optimizing production, delivering flawless bike protection installs, perfecting distribution, and creating an exceptional customer experience.

Through our core values of Innovation, Precision, and Community, you will be the ultimate resource for the Whistler storefront.
