Specialist Mechanic & Presenter 

Mapdec Cycle Works is a media-centric workshop based in Kendal, at the gateway to the English Lake District. We are recruiting a new mechanic to serve our local customers and engage with online fans.

At Mapdec, being a skilled mechanic is paramount. Our busy workshop has outstanding customer reviews thanks to the expertise and proficiency of our mechanics, it is their knowledge and skill we share with our YouTube audience. We are very open-minded to recruiting, and ultimately want to find the right person. If you want to work at Mapdec, we want to hear from you. That said, our ideal candidate would have the following broad attributes. Some years of experience and skilled at working with tools. A borderline unhealthy obsession with bicycles. Knowledge of a niche such as eBikes, wheels, suspension, carbon, race bikes. An ambition to present, review and educate on camera.

We realise these skills are somewhat unique and we will offer training and skills nurturing for the right person. Within 6-8 months we would be looking for the chosen candidate to be able to work and bill 4 hours per day in the workshop, providing highly detailed and quality service. Then plan, prepare and present content with our creative team. This might involve self-filming on location (out riding). Often you might be presenting on the service you are working on; real life case studies are a fan favourite.

Bike fit technician & sales consultant 

As we expand our bike fit offering at Velo Edge we are looking for a full time bike fit technician and sales consultant to join the team. This is an amazing opportunity to work with some of the world’s best fitting technology but to also learn from our in-house bike fitting partners, Crimson Performance. You will be immersed in all things bike fit from the outset, with access to 1-2-1 support from the Crimson Performance team to ensure you operate at the highest level. The role is multifaceted and whilst bike fitting will be at its core, you will also help customers from start to finish with dream bike builds at Velo Edge. Working closely with brands like Argon 18, ENVE, Parlee, Specialized and S-Works.

Full training will be provided and whilst previous fitting experience is preferred, it’s not essential. We are ideally looking for someone who has a sports science background with an interest in biomechanics and physiology. Previous experience in the bike trade is also useful but not essential. You will need to be mechanically minded and competent at making positional adjustments on road, TT, track and gravel bikes. A keen eye for detail is essential, treating customers’ bikes as your own with a no compromise approach to achieving a perfect fit. A Cytech qualification (or equivalent) is preferred but not essential.

Naturally, this role suits a candidate who loves all things cycling. You’ll be a flexible can-do person, able to work well in a busy environment. The one thing more valuable than a killer sales instinct is a friendly, approachable nature, ready to welcome customers and treat them like a VIP – whether they’re spending thousands on a high-end road bike or just dropping in for a flat white. In return, we offer an encouraging, collaborative team environment where we’re all willing to get stuck in and help out to help each other, and to make customers happy.
