Part-Time Jobs for Retirees at Auto Lift Services
If you’ve spent thirty or forty years actually working for a living — running a business, wrenching on equipment, closing deals, managing crews — and you’re not ready to stop, we probably have a role for you. We hire retirees and semi-retirees into part-time positions across every function we run. What we won’t do is treat you like an intern. What we will do is respect what you’ve built, pay you fairly for the work you do, and give you the flexibility to enjoy the retirement you earned.

Why We Hire Retirees
Short version: because you’ve forgotten more about work than most 25-year-olds will ever learn. Retirement jobs at a lot of companies mean greeting people at a big-box store or filling in on weekends because they can’t keep enough coverage. That’s not this. When we hire a semi-retired person, it’s because you specifically have something we need — a trade skill, a customer-facing polish, decades of running your own crew, or a relationship you built with dealer principals over a career in the industry.
Roles That Fit Retirees Well
Dream 100 / Relationship Sales — Part-Time
If you spent a career in and around the automotive trade, dealer service departments, tire chains, fleet maintenance, or industrial supply — you know people. We want that. Part-time relationship sales means calling on accounts you already have credibility with, or building new ones on your own schedule. $16–$25/hr base plus uncapped commission on what you close. Talk to us about your book. More detail here.
Field Service / Install Support
If you’ve spent your career installing, servicing, or wrenching on equipment — you can do our work in your sleep. Retired HVAC techs, electricians, mechanics, and industrial equipment installers cross over easily and enjoy the change of pace. Part-time schedule, 2–4 days a week, mostly regional day trips. $18–$45/hr depending on your skill.
Customer & Order Support
Occasional part-time roles handling customer calls, order processing, and dealer follow-up. If you can be pleasant on the phone and are handy with a computer, this is a low-physical-demand option. Hours are flexible.
Shop / Warehouse Support
Part-time hands at our Ames, Iowa headquarters — receiving equipment, staging installs, keeping the yard organized. Physical but not brutal. Good fit for a retired shop guy who wants a couple days a week around equipment and the people who work on it.
What Makes This Different
- Real respect. You’ll be talked to like the veteran you are, not like someone we’re doing a favor.
- Real work. You’ll have a defined role and defined outcomes. Not filler tasks.
- Real pay. Same hourly ranges as full-time equivalents, prorated for part-time hours.
- Real flexibility. Winters in Florida? Summers in Iowa? Grandkids on Wednesdays? Tell us your schedule and we’ll build the role around it.
- Real benefits. Part-time roles that run 20+ hours a week qualify for our health and dental. All part-time roles include PTO on a prorated schedule.
