Bikes work in the cold, but you might want studded tires

BiCi Co. Program Manager Job Posting – This might just be your dream job. BiCi Co. is posting for a full time Program Manager position. This is the equivalent of a bicycle-unicorn hybrid. You may not see it again. If you think you’re the bicycle-unicorn for the job, we’d love to chat. (Tony C isn’t going anywhere. We’re posting this position to balance workload between BiCi Co. and the Center’s youth development programs. There is a parallel posting for a part time Youth Specialist. The Center will be filling one or the other depending on the best fit applicant.)

We are looking for a unicorn. Could it be you?
