Rock Up & Ride Programme Activator (Edinburgh)

Organisation: Scottish Cycling
Salary: £27,128-£28,235
Location: The Crags Centre, 10 Bowmont Place, Edinburgh, EH8 9RY
Contract type: Fixed Term (Full time)
Closing date: 31 May 2026
Interview date: 12 June 2026
Job Description: In 2027, Scotland will host the prestigious Tour de France Grand Départ. This landmark event presents a unique opportunity to create lasting social impact by encouraging more people to experience the physical and mental benefits of cycling.

This role will coordinate and deliver the day-to-day activities of two key programmes in Edinburgh: the Rock Up & Ride programme and a new girls’ participation programme. The role will also focus on building a strong cycling community around the Crags Centre (We Play Together SCIO) and surrounding areas.

Scottish Cycling’s Rock Up & Ride programme aims to increase cycling participation, particularly among under-represented groups. It builds confidence and skills to help people cycle more often and make long-term changes to their travel habits.

Alongside this, increasing the number of women and girls involved in cycle sport is a key priority. In partnership with British Cycling, a new girls’ participation programme will launch later this year, and this role will support its delivery in targeted areas of Edinburgh.
How to apply: Scottish Cycling is committed to selecting staff solely based on their ability to do the job for which they are being recruited and welcomes application from all sections of the community.
