Ithaca Carshare seeks part-time staff
Ithaca Carshare, a local nonprofit that provides over 1400 community
members with 24/7 access to a fleet of 25 vehicles on a per-hour basis
toward a mission of enhancing community access to transportation while
reducing negative environmental and economic impacts, is currently looking
for someone to join our dedicated staff.
The ideal candidate is excited about working for a dynamic organization
that serves a cross-section of Ithaca’s varied community, good at working
with both people and things, reliable with minimal supervision, results and
detail-oriented, creative, experienced in taking personal initiative in the
workplace, and comfortable with the flexible duties and schedule that come
with being part of a small but strong team.
Help us make Ithaca Carshare an even more valued community asset. This is a
great opportunity for a confident person with a professional outlook to
join a growing local organization in an emerging transportation industry.
We currently have one part-time opening. The successful candidate may have
opportunity for growth in duties, responsibilities, and hours into the
future.
On-Call After Hours Member Services Position
This position is approximately 5-10 hours a week. Primary job duties
include answering phones, processing applications, handling reservations
and occasional minor vehicle issues, fielding questions about Ithaca
Carshare’s service (and other local transportation services, as necessary),
occasional outreach activities, and other job activities as necessary.
Proficiency using a computer and phone in a professional setting,
familiarity with the Ithaca area, and familiarity with very basic vehicle
troubleshooting (jumping batteries, changing tires) are required.
Training will occur during weekdays at our office in the DeWitt Mall
downtown. The regular schedule for this on-call position is evenings,
nights, and weekends, typically 1-3 weeknights (5 pm-9 am) and 2 weekends
(5 pm Friday-9 am Monday) per week. Most work can be performed from home
(within cell service range; a smartphone for work duties is provided), but
occasionally trips to vehicles are necessary to handle urgent issues, so an
ability to reach our downtown/East Hill core vehicle areas within 20
minutes is required. (Walking, biking or use of the Ithaca Carshare fleet
to reach vehicles is fine; in line with our organizational mission, car
ownership is not required.) A few hours of office work during Monday
workday and some additional weekday flexibility is required.)
Starting pay is $14.11 per hour, and benefits include an Ithaca Carshare
membership and a TCAT bus pass. Pay for overnight and weekend shifts
includes a stipend for on-call availability ($12 for a weeknight, $40 for a
weekend) in addition to the regular hourly rate for actual work hours.
Application Details
Strong interpersonal and communication skills and a good driving record are
required, while a sense of humor is optional but helpful. We ask for
electronic submission of applications, as the position requires comfort
with computer use in a professional setting.
Please submit a resume, cover letter and two references via email to
jennifer at ithacacarshare.org. Questions about the position and application
process are also welcome, and can be directed to our office by email or
phone at 607-277-3210 x3.
We are accepting applications immediately and until 12 noon, Monday,
February 3, 2014, with the position to start by the second week of
February. Ithaca Carshare is a certified Living Wage employer and values a
reflection of our community’s diversity in our staff and membership.
