Get paid to share your passion – become a cycle instructor
Local cycle training provider Avanti Cycling have been getting people on bikes since 2014.
We cover everything from learn to ride to lorry driver cycle awareness, and now have a successful community programme in Reading including the annual Reading Cycle Festival.
We are expanding in Reading and across Berkshire and South Oxfordshire and are in need of more cycle instructors.
Bikeability instructors work flexibly to suit other commitments and teach the next generation of cyclists vital riding skills.
Our instructor courses take place every few months in Reading/East Berkshire and South Oxfordshire.
It is a 5 day course, the cost of which can be covered by a bursary obtained through the local council.
As teaching/people skills are useful for the role, we welcome people from all walks of life, including novice or ‘non-expert’ cyclists.
Training and mentoring will be given to improve your cycle skills.
Work is available all year round and you can get involved in other work including Bike Fix, business engagement, young people’s rides, and our events.
Office based work and volunteer opportunities are also available.
