This is a part-time position requiring approximately 16–24 hours per week. While occasional evenings or weekends may be requested for content creation or special events, most work can be completed during regular business hours.

Startup Environment
Pickle Alley is a growing startup. As with any startup, priorities, responsibilities, and projects will evolve as the business grows. Team members are expected to be adaptable, willing to learn, and contribute wherever needed to support the success of the club.
While this position has primary areas of responsibility, no job description can anticipate every need of a growing business. Employees are expected to perform other duties and special projects as assigned that are reasonably related to the operation of the business.
Compensation
- Part-time (approximately 16–24 hours per week)
- Hourly compensation based on experience.
- Opportunity for performance-based incentives, including commission opportunities for originating and securing qualified large private events and corporate bookings.
