Rebalancer (Donkey Republic Driver) - day, evening and weekend shifts available

Erdem, who grew up in Istanbul, saw how bicycles are the key to more liveable cities, the environment and health." One of the founders of Donkey Republic, he saw in Copenhagen in 2012 how a number of friends from different cities shared bicycles with the location and sent the combination lock code via SMS. He thought there should be an easier way. The start was funded with a Kickstarter. Today, Donkey Republic is active in more than 70 European cities with 17,000 bicycles. The goal is still there: more cyclists with fewer bicycles. We are looking for a few new colleagues to support the growing (e-)bike fleet in the company's home city Copenhagen, assisting with daily operations and maintenance of the bicycles. You will become part of a growing team of bicycle enthusiasts: Donkey Shepherds.

You start your shift from our workshop in Vesterbro or Søborg, and drive off with an electric delivery van (e-Expert, e-Sprinter or similar), with repaired pedal bikes (weighing about 20kg) and a load of electric bicycle batteries. You'll continue the day by moving bikes around the city to serve more happy customers and stopping for e-bikes that need batteries to be swapped. With the help of our app you will find your way, and perform the necessary tasks. Starting time of the shift is occasionally flexible with the possibility of evening work in the future, which will be planned together with you and the driving team.

• Redistribute bicycles to serve more happy customers
