About this role
Flexdrive, Lyft's vehicle subscription program, is hiring an Operations Associate to work full-time at its Cleveland hub. You'd be the person drivers interact with when they arrive to pick up rental vehicles—handling check-ins, processing returns, and getting them on the road. Beyond customer-facing work, you'd also prepare vehicles for service by fueling, cleaning, installing equipment, conducting inspections, and managing compliance paperwork. The role involves coordinating the lot, flagging operational issues to your manager, and keeping things running smoothly across daily rental operations.
This position suits someone with at least a year of customer service experience in retail, hospitality, or technical support who's comfortable in a fast-paced, people-focused environment. You'll need strong communication skills, patience, and the ability to solve problems and de-escalate on the fly. A valid driver's license with a clean record is required, and familiarity with the Cleveland area is preferred. The role is entirely in-person and full-time, so you need to be based in a state where Flexdrive operates.
Lyft offers competitive benefits including medical, dental, and vision coverage, mental health support, unlimited PTO for salaried roles (15 days for hourly), 401(k) matching, 18 weeks paid parental leave, and pre-tax commuter benefits. The base pay range is $16.62 to $20.77 per hour, depending on your experience and qualifications.
