Job Description

Valet Living is a leading provider of residential trash collection services, dedicated to enhancing the living environments of apartment communities through high-quality and consistent valet trash services. As a reputable and innovative company, Valet Living emphasizes operational excellence, customer satisfaction, and career growth opportunities for its team members. Founded with a commitment to community and service, Valet Living has established itself as a key partner for property management firms looking to streamline waste management and improve resident experiences. The company fosters a culture of integrity, teamwork, and continuous improvement, making it an attractive employer for those seeking both stability and advancement in their careers.

The Lead Service Valet role at Valet Living is an essential position responsible for supporting the operational aspects of valet trash service at multiple apartment communities. This leadership-oriented role reports directly to the Operations Manager and serves as a hands-on support figure who ensures service quality, coverage, and team development within assigned service areas. With a typical work schedule of evening shifts from Sunday through Thursday and a competitive pay rate of $21 per hour, the role offers mileage reimbursement as an added benefit, recognizing the travel involved in serving multiple districts.

This position is designed as a steppingstone to the Area Leader role, providing a clear path for career growth and leadership development. The Lead Service Valet steps into an Area Leader's responsibilities during their absences, managing service routes and addressing operational issues in the field. Success in this role requires a proactive approach to identifying service trends, solving problems efficiently, and maintaining consistent service levels across multiple communities. The role combines physical responsibilities, such as participating in trash collection when necessary, with supervisory duties including training new Service Valets, conducting service quality audits, and supporting community events or new client launches.

Ideal candidates will demonstrate a customer-first mindset, strong leadership potential, and excellent problem-solving skills. They must be comfortable working independently in fast-paced environments, adapting to changing business needs, and using mobile technology and company tools to enhance service delivery. This role is physically demanding, requiring the ability to work outdoors in all weather conditions, lift up to 50 pounds, and walk long distances. It is well-suited for motivated individuals who value teamwork, operational excellence, and career advancement within a dynamic service-oriented company.

By joining Valet Living as a Lead Service Valet, employees become part of a supportive and growth-oriented culture that values their contributions. The company offers a workplace where leadership is about service, and professional development is encouraged. Alongside competitive pay and practical benefits, team members gain the opportunity to make a tangible impact on the communities they serve and to grow within a company dedicated to excellence and innovation in valet trash services.
