You’ll play a vital role in promoting active travel, independence, and wellbeing for young people across Hampshire. If you don’t yet hold the required Bikeability award, we’ll provide fully accredited training before you start delivering courses.

Our team operates across the Hampshire County Council area, but your role will primarily focus on the Central and North regions, including Winchester, Basingstoke, Andover, Farnborough, and surrounding areas, with Winchester as your office base.

• Drive the Bikeability van (training provided) and manage equipment for sessions.
• Promote cycling as a healthy, sustainable mode of transport and remove barriers to participation.

What we’re looking for:
• An experienced, confident, and enthusiastic cyclist with your own bike and helmet.
• A passion for outdoor activities, comfortable working outdoors in all weather and physically active environments.
• Strong knowledge of safety and risk management, and an understanding of what makes experiences truly valuable and high quality.
• Ability to travel across Hampshire and transport equipment to schools.
• Excellent communication skills and basic IT literacy.
• Level 2 Award in Instructing Cycle Training (or willingness to train).

Why join us:
• Make a real difference by inspiring and empowering young people with lifelong skills.
• Fully funded accredited training if you’re not already qualified.
• Work in a supportive team within Hampshire Outdoors, part of the Participation and Lifelong Learning department.
• Be part of a programme that promotes health, resilience, and sustainable travel.
• Access to Health Assured's comprehensive Employee Assistance Programme to support your physical and mental wellbeing, including 24/7 telephone support, a suite of online resources, and legal and financial advice.
• A competitive benefits package that includes generous annual leave entitlement, occupational sick pay, and access to the Local Government Pension Scheme.
