Job Description
Part-Time Sales Associate – NwProGear Bike Shop
NwProGear is looking for a part-time sales person to join our team! We are a busy, family-owned bike shop in Portland with an awesome crew, a huge selection of new and refurbished bikes, and a strong focus on helping customers find the right bike without the pressure.
This is a part-time position with the potential to become full-time during the busy summer season. Sunday availability is required, as Sundays are one of our busiest days. We are closed on Saturdays, so Saturday will always be a day off.
We are looking for someone with previous bike shop experience and a solid baseline knowledge of different types of bikes, including mountain bikes, road bikes, gravel bikes, commuter bikes, kids bikes, and e-bikes. We work with 15+ brands for our new bike lineup and also have a vast used bike inventory. In total, we stock 400+ bikes, so this is a great fit for someone who enjoys being around a wide variety of bikes and helping customers find the right one.
You do not need to know everything, but you should be comfortable talking with customers, understanding their needs, helping with sizing, explaining basic bike features, and working as part of a fast-moving team.
Part of this role will also include helping keep the shop clean, organized, and flowing well. That means restocking inventory, moving bikes and boxes, keeping the sales floor presentable, and helping with the day-to-day tasks that keep a busy bike shop running smoothly. Applicants must be able to lift and handle 50+ lbs. Mechanical experience is a plus, but not required.
Responsibilities include:
* Greeting customers and helping them find the right bike or gear
* Answering basic questions about different bike styles, sizing, and components
* Helping with test rides and customer follow-ups
* Keeping the sales floor clean, organized, and presentable
* Restocking inventory and helping maintain shop flow
* Moving bikes, boxes, and inventory as needed
* Working with the service team to help customers with repairs, accessories, and bike setup
* Providing friendly, honest, low-pressure customer service
What we are looking for:
* Prior bike shop experience is required
* Good baseline knowledge of different types of bikes
* Sunday availability is required
* Able to lift and handle 50+ lbs
* Friendly, reliable, and comfortable talking with customers
* Able to work in a busy shop environment
* Strong communication skills
* Willingness to learn and be part of a team
* Mechanical experience is a plus
Shop perks:
* New and used bike/parts hookups
* Rad coworkers and a fun shop environment
* Espresso machine in the shop
* Saturday is always off
* Potential for full-time hours during the summer season
* A huge variety of bikes to learn from and work around
