It defines the time period we live in as a new era, and will disrupt virtually all human systems (including this business) as the planet changes faster than existing structures can adapt. In order to build a better future for humanity, it is a necessary condition that the people building the component parts of that future must succeed. That’s us (at least in part). Success will come with reward: we aim to create career-level jobs in sales, technical work, hospitality, and logistical spaces.

Job Responsibilities:

• Your core responsibility is to our customers.

• Our operations are limited to emergency repairs and online consultations around the last ten days of the calendar year and the first ten days of the following year, and you will have very limited responsibilities during this time.

• Perks include family bike benefits, seasonal ebbs and flows (including time off over the winter holidays), working with a great team, and getting to know the wonderful people who make up the #LdnOntBike community. Plus, you’ll get to ride the TVP to work every day.

• Coaching: Help a person (Staff or Customers) develop enthusiasm, knowledge, and skills in everyday cycling.
