Mobile Entertainer / Beer Bike Captain – Bournemouth
£30 per ride | Weekend and seasonal work | Tips commonly received
Join our Bournemouth Beer Bike team as a Mobile Entertainer and Beer Bike Captain — the host responsible for turning every ride into a memorable celebration.
We are recruiting now so that successful applicants can complete their training and become fully prepared before our busy spring and summer season begins.
This is an ideal opportunity for someone from a hospitality, events, entertainment, or customer-service background who enjoys engaging with guests and creating an outstanding atmosphere.
You will host birthday celebrations, stag and hen parties, corporate groups, tourists, and other special occasions. This is not simply about operating the bike: you will be the face of the experience, setting the tone, keeping guests entertained, and delivering professional service from arrival to departure.
Essential Requirement
- A valid full driving licence is required
- Applicants without a valid driving licence cannot be considered
Your Responsibilities
- Lead Beer Bike experiences around Bournemouth
- Welcome guests and provide a confident, professional introduction
- Host and entertain groups throughout the experience
- Create a lively, upbeat, and inclusive atmosphere
- Engage naturally with different personalities and celebrations
- Deliver excellent hospitality and customer service
- Keep the experience organised and running to schedule
- Monitor guest behaviour and apply safety procedures confidently
- Ensure every ride operates safely and smoothly
- Complete basic pre-ride and post-ride checks
- Help maintain a clean, presentable bike and operating area
Who We Are Looking For
You will be well suited to this role if you are:
- Outgoing, energetic, and naturally sociable
- Confident speaking to and managing groups
- Experienced in hospitality, events, tourism, entertainment, or customer service
- Reliable, punctual, and comfortable working independently
- Able to remain professional while maintaining a fun atmosphere
- Confident enforcing safety rules when necessary
- Comfortable working outdoors and undertaking an active role
- Available primarily on weekends during spring and summer
Experience as a bartender, waiter, hotel employee, event host, entertainer, activity leader, tour guide, performer, actor, or hospitality supervisor would be particularly relevant.
Mechanical Knowledge
Mechanical experience is helpful but not essential. Basic confidence with tools or practical tasks would be useful for:
- Routine bike checks
- Minor adjustments
- Basic maintenance
- General upkeep around the operating base
Full training will be provided before the 2027 season. Your personality, hospitality skills, reliability, and confidence with guests matter more than previous mechanical experience.
Pay
- £30 per completed ride
- Each ride typically lasts approximately 60–75 minutes
- Tips are commonly received
- Multiple rides may be available during busy days
- Additional rides provide additional earnings
- Optional paid preparation or maintenance hours may be available
Schedule
- Primarily weekend work
- Seasonal demand, with the busiest period during spring and summer
- Flexible work that can fit around weekday employment, studies, acting, or other commitments
- Some weekday shifts may occasionally be available
If you know how to welcome people, read a group, create an atmosphere, and deliver memorable hospitality, we would like to hear from you.
