Bike end-of-service lead

Donkey Republic Copenhagen Part-time

Salary Competitive

We are looking for a lead, with bachelor-level or equivalent experience, to set up a process on how best to handle bikes and ebikes when they reach end-of-service.

The Donkey bikes can serve 4-5 years out on the streets before we replace them with newer models. During the bike replacement, we need a reliable way to pass on, recycle or safely dispose of the 1.000s of bikes that every year reach end-of-service. It has to be reliable in the sense that we need a process that can be repeated year after year.

It will be your responsibility to investigate different end-of-service options including:

• Selling bikes B2B to wholesale-buyers that focus on 2nd hand bike-sales.
• Setup with bike assembler to de-assemble Donkey bikes and use high-value components for new bikes. Other components to be recycled or disposed of in an appropriate way.
• Upgrade bikes so they can last another 4-5 years out on the streets.
• Other options that have a social dimension, e.g. institutions or people with special skills to be involved in disassembly or similar.
• …other options?

Together with the operations team at Donkey Republic, you will develop a business plan to guide the decision process.

We expect this role to be part-time over the next 2 yrs.
