We’re Hiring an Cycle Operations Lead for our Sheffield Cycling 4 All project, to provide for Sabbatical Cover!
We’re looking for a passionate and highly organised individual to be the Cycle Operations Lead for our Sheffield Cycling 4 All project, providing Sabbatical Cover for our current Lead.
You will be part of a team of staff delivering the existing SC4A programme of activity, as well as helping to continue developing our popular cycling activities and other elements of the programme. Whilst there is therefore a lot of cross-over working, this post will lead on the following areas;
- Operational management of all our cycling sessions and rides, including regular sessions at Hillsborough Park and Parkwood Springs, occasional sessions at Concord Park, events across South Yorkshire and led rides.
- The development of new sessions and rides, including a new base in Rotherham.
- Regular delivery or support of sessions across all sites.
- Managing our fleet of 50-60 cycles.
- Managing our team of ~25 volunteers.
The job is incredibly varied, so you will need to be a good all-rounder and a creative thinker to address all the things that come your way. But don’t worry, you are part of a wider team and a host of volunteers who directly support the project, and you are also part of a larger organisation, Disability Sheffield.
A lot of the work is outdoors and people come to our sessions even if the weather is bad so expect to work in the cold and wet sometimes. We also attend occasional evening meetings which are all part of the role.
