We are looking for proactive and enthusiastic track cycling coaches who are inspirational and passionate about the sport of cycling.

Experienced track riders aiming for fitness gains or skill development in advance of major events are also in need of high-quality coaching and opportunities to access track time.

The successful candidate should have experience of delivering track cycling sessions across a range of adult and youth groups in an indoor Velodrome environment, while holding all relevant coaching qualifications. An extensive knowledge and practical application of coaching methods, health and safety and athlete progression will also be required in addition to the passion for making each session a high-quality memorable experience.
