BikeBiz Bicycle and cycling retail news
BikeBiz prides itself on some key points.
Our monthly print magazine – if you don’t receive a print copy of BikeBiz, it’s free and can be sent straight to your door – is full to the brim with in-depth analysis, useful insight into some of the biggest, most prestigious names and some of the most promising emerging brands that the industry has to offer. In fact, in recent months we’ve had a full re-design and a content re-shuffle that we feel places us firmly at the heart of the industry. We also, of course, have our website – which not only features similar in-depth analysis and insight, but cutting edge news as soon as it develops; a key area that cannot go un-mentioned is our jobs board.
In an industry filled with passion and genuine innovation, finding yourself in the right position can be the difference between just getting through the days and embarking on your life’s true purpose. The cycling industry is built on a foundation of impeccable workmanship and a simple five minute browse of the BikeBiz job board confirms that whether you’re based in central London, Birmingham, Cornwall or anywhere else in the UK, there’s an exiting new position waiting for you.
My advert for an event mechanic attracted more brilliant applications than I ever expected
In 2017 we had a scorching year on the board, with nearly 700 jobs posted and 270,000 visitors regularly checking the page. Opportunities for positions in Spain, France and even Austrailia made it onto the front page and were swiftly snapped up; we’re happy to say that many glowing reviews of the process made their way back to the team.
One such position was with events company Le Loop – Previously Tour de Force, who posted a unique position for two event mechanics. After finding the right person for the job via the board, the team told us: "Thank you BikeBiz! My advert for an event mechanic attracted more brilliant applications than I ever expected. Within a week I had an inbox full of great CVs and I’ve now filled the two roles with excellent mechanics. The whole process was quick and very good value. I’ll definitely use BikeBiz next time I’m looking for event staff and I’d recommend anyone else to use your service too. Thank you!”
We recommend checking back to the jobs board regularly, as new positions are posted on a daily basis. Don’t forget, we also do a weekly roundup of new opportunities every Friday.
