Islabikes-Careers

News update:
Read about our ground-breaking new approach to maternity and paternity leave.

 



Do you love cycling and want to turn a hobby into a career? Are you passionate about the health and wellbeing of children and want to do your bit?

Maybe you’ve got decades of experience or simply enjoy a ride to the café and looking for a change in direction.

Qualifications or previous experience are not essential to be part of the Islabikes team, as much of our training is conducted in-house. However, if you do have relevant or transferable experience, make sure you tell us about it in your application.

We aim to give staff the most rounded view of the business possible. After you are fully trained there may be opportunities to gain skills and experience in another part of the business that you find interesting.

We welcome applications from enthusiastic people with an insatiable appetite to learn.

Fill out our Job Application Form and email to jobs@islabikes.co.uk  or call us on +44 (0)1584 708 383 for an informal chat.
