Student Operations Manager

This isn't the internship where you fetch coffee or sit in meetings nodding like you understand everything.
This is the one where you actually run things.

At Storage Scholars, students don't just help, they run campus operations. If you want an internship where you make decisions, lead teams, and own the outcome, this role is for you.

We're hiring driven college students to lead our 2026 moving and storage operations on UCLA and Los Angeles Region area. You'll be trusted with real responsibility, supported by training and mentorship, and given the freedom to execute.

What Makes This Role Different

• You're not shadowing someone else
• You're not waiting around to be told what to do
• You're leading teams and making decisions

When campus gets busy, you'll take an active role in keeping operations running smoothly. You'll manage teams, solve problems as they come up, and make decisions that impact real students on your campus.

What You'll Do

• Lead and manage student mover teams
• Own daily operations during move-out and move-in
• Work directly with fellow students as your customers
• Load, unload, organize, and transport student belongings
• Drive moving trucks and coordinate logistics
• Manage inventory through our online system
• Organize orders within our storage facilities
• Coordinate with professional moving partners and regional staff
• Represent Storage Scholars on campus and assist with outreach
• Adapt quickly when plans change and problems arise

How the Year Works

Compensation

• $200 training bonus
• $50 intern referral bonus
• $25 customer referral bonus
• Commission-based pay for every item picked up and delivered
• All tips paid directly to managers and movers
