About the Role

We are seeking a detail-oriented and professional Inventory Intake Specialist to join our team in a part-time capacity. This role is ideal for someone who thrives on the road, as travel is a major component of the position, involving frequent trips by both plane and car. You will serve as the first face-to-face point of contact for our new clients, acting as a dedicated Brand Ambassador to ensure a seamless transition into our service.

Key Responsibilities

Logistics & Planning: Coordinate closely with the Onboarding Team to book travel and schedule onsite appointments. You will be responsible for mapping out comprehensive trip agendas tailored to the specific size and number of locations for each restaurant client.

Documentation & Intake: Conduct thorough physical audits of equipment. This includes inspecting, photographing, and documenting every asset with precision.

Successful Handoffs: Prepare professional inventory recaps, ensuring all images are organized and any specific customer requests or general site observations are clearly communicated to the internal team.

Relationship Management: Build and maintain strong working relationships with new customers through exemplary professionalism and high-level service.

Qualifications

  • High School Diploma or Equivalent
  • Valid Driver's License required
  • Must be 25+ years old (rental car age minimum)
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Strong time management and organization skills
  • Strong problem resolution skills with a passion for helping customers
  • Ability to spot things others may miss
  • Experience working in a restaurant or as a service provider 

The frequency of work will be irregular, making this a great role for someone looking for a gig-type position to fit in with other jobs. This role could be a great daytime job for someone who serves/bartends in a restaurant on nights/weekends!

  • Physical demands: Will be on your feet for up to 10 hours at a time, bending down to get into tight spaces, lifting heavy objects (up to 50 lbs.), climbing ladders and accessing the roof of buildings.
  • This role is a field position requiring you to live near a major metro airport, and may require travel to regional states. You will be required to travel during the week depending on assignments.
  • Ideal candidate: A part time FOH or BOH restaurant employee who works weekends, online students with restaurant experience, or similar background.

We do not require

  • A college degree or high GPA
  • Tools (We’ll provide you with your computer, monitor, and everything you need)
  • Startup or tech experience (an aptitude for fast-paced, tech work is enough)

Compensation & Benefits

  • Company-provided equipment (computer; monitor; tools)
  • Competitive base salary in line with the Chicago market 
    • Base pay is $21.50/hr for core work time and $18.00/hr for travel pay
    • Plus our “Check Please” dining benefit, where the company pays for you to eat at our customers’ restaurants!

Our Company

86 Repairs is transforming a huge, overlooked problem in restaurants: getting things fixed. While other parts of the industry have evolved thanks to technology (think: online ordering, point-of-sale), repairs and maintenance (R&M) has kept the status quo…

Until we came along.

86 launched an R&M management platform built for the restaurant industry in 2019. Our tech-enabled solution includes on-demand repair management and preventative maintenance. With 86 Repairs, restaurants can access data-driven insights and 24/7 support to control their facilities, reduce their R&M costs, and spend less of their team's time on equipment repairs.

Our Commitment

The only way to build a great company is by hiring talented people with diverse backgrounds and rich life experiences. Those experiences contribute to our culture and help us find creative solutions to the tough problems we're solving. Because of this, 86 Repairs is committed to inclusion across race, gender, age, religion, identity, and background in everything we do. 

Historically, women and people of color are hesitant to apply for a role unless they meet every qualification listed in the job description. If you are uncertain if you're a fit, please apply. We'd rather have one more resume to review than miss the chance to meet amazing talent.

Benefits

Mileage reimbursement

86 Repairs builds a streamlined repair and maintenance solution specifically designed for restaurant operators. By offering customizable software that automates the repair process and manages warranties, we help restaurants significantly reduce their repair and maintenance costs. Our focus on the unique needs of the restaurant industry sets us apart in a crowded market.
