What you bring:

  • Hands-on beekeeping experience and strong knowledge of hive health and seasonal management
  • Availability to service hives on a recurring schedule throughout the season
  • Ability to work independently with minimal supervision
  • Comfort using mobile and digital tools to log visits, tasks, and data (training provided)
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail, especially for record-keeping and compliance
  • Professional, friendly communication style
  • Valid driver's license and reliable access to a vehicle
  • Comfort working at heights, ability to move freely (standing, stooping, walking, bending, pushing, pulling, and repetitive hand/finger motions) and lifting up to a maximum of fifty (50) pounds without assistance
  • Comfort with the reality of beekeeping hazards (stings, heavy lifting, inclement weather, etc.)

Note: This opportunity is best suited to beekeepers who manage their own colonies or already provide beekeeping services to clients of their own. If you don't meet the criteria but are interested in learning about other ways to partner with Alvéole, please write talent@alvéole.buzz.
