Since its creation 2000, GBT has become a leader in the arena of community led health improvement with a record of success delivering high quality, effective community-led health improvement services. It is a successful, respected organisation widely recognised by statutory, voluntary sector partners and the individuals we work with.

Over the last 23 years, Getting Better Together has witnessed the sort of transformations normally reserved for feel good films. At GBT, sports, exercise, healthy eating, and other community participatory activities aren’t just about improving health, they’re turning people’s lives around, transforming stereotypes and giving our community opportunities they were previously excluded from.

GBT are a courageous organisation, pushing boundaries and challenging ingrained perceptions about what it means to be healthy. Our success has shown that wellbeing is not wholly dependent on how financially well off you are: Everything GBT does is inspired and informed by the practical needs of the people on our doorstep.

We now have vacancy for a full time (35 Hrs) Cycle Development Officer. The main aim of the role is to oversee and develop the Trackside Bikes at GBT. This programme includes a range of cycling services within our Trackside Bike shop including bike repairs, services, loans, and educational offerings.

Acting as an ambassador for cycling and active travel in North Lanarkshire you will work closely with the staff team, GBT, key local stakeholders and the wider community to promote the benefits of cycling.
