Do you love riding bikes? Do you like helping people? Are you a registered Bikeability Instructor? We need enthusiastic and approachable people to join our friendly team working at Bristol Cycling Centre delivering cycling activities to people of all ages and abilities.

We are looking for people who would like to teach cycling skills to a wide range of people of all ages and abilities to engage learners in different ways. You will need to be encouraging and energetic, with patience and good communication skills.

Ideally, you’ll already be a full National Standard Cycle Instructor.

There may also be opportunities for people without the instructor qualification who meet all the other essential criteria to join as trainee instructors (BG5 rate, rising to BG7 once qualified) with full training provided to enable you to become a qualified cycle trainer (1st 4 Sport Level 2 Award in Instructing Cycle Training). You will need to attend a 4-day training course in Bristol as well as extra days afterwards working in schools to gain the delivery experience to complete the qualification. Please read the course requirements before applying. The course is for those aged 18 and over and would need to be started within 3 months of employment. Level 2 Award in Instructing Cycle Training | Life Cycle UK

Positions are available working 1 - 4 days every week from 9:00am to 4.30pm (7hrs) with a 30min lunch break.

You would be delivering training to lots of different people of all ages and abilities using regular and inclusive cycles. Sessions include:

- Helping people learn to ride
- Helping people build cycle skills and confidence
- Teaching Bikeability courses (levels 1, 2 and 3)
- Assisting disabled people to cycle using inclusive and regular bikes
- Games and skills coaching for groups of riders.

Bristol Cycling Centre at Hengrove gives people of all ages and abilities the chance to ride in a traffic-free environment. Watching people learning to ride or trying cycling for the first time never gets old and helping people to share the joy of riding is very rewarding. The centre is very popular especially at weekends and sessions are often fully booked.

We offer:

- A regular timetable of Learn to Ride, Rock up and ride and Disability sessions
- Bikeability training
- Volunteering and work placement opportunities
