Bike mechanic - Melbourne
Giant Hampton is a super friendly bike shop with a big heart. We're lucky enough to have a great looking store by the beach, stocked with luxury brands and staffed by a team that treats each other like family.
Our business has grown over the past few years and there are now more bikes in Bayside than ever. We are looking for new staff to help us keep our customers happy and our community riding.
We require an experienced mechanic who loves at least one form of cycling, whether it's commuting, exploring bike paths, or racing in your chosen discipline. We ride together when we can and we're keen for you to join us.
It's also important that you have previous retail experience so you can hit the ground running (pedalling!) as this can be a fast paced environment.
For clarity, Full-Time is 5 days per week.
We are currently open Mon-Saturday and therefore weekend work will be required, as well as some Public/School Holidays.
