About Us

Recyke-a-bike (formerly of Fallin Community Enterprises) has been in operation since 2005. We began as a small recycling social enterprise that quickly grew into a job club, using bike recycling as work experience for our members. Over the years we’ve seen a lot of growth and now offer various training services and cycling outreach work, in addition to our bike recycling and sales through our well stocked and modestly priced shop.

Purpose

Joining the Senior Management Team at Recyke-a-bike this role will manage and have supervision over all Recyke-a-bike Outreach projects and programmes, not including the shop and workshop. This includes schools’ delivery, employability programmes, community cycling projects and active travel initiatives. The post holder will ensure that projects are delivered efficiently, meet targets and budgets, and reflect Recyke-a-bike’s mission to use cycling to improve lives, promote sustainability and support inclusion.

The Outreach Manager is responsible for increasing Outreach-generated income. This includes developing and growing paid Outreach activity, such as corporate and for-profit partnerships, commissioned bookings, and identifying new opportunities for income generation across our Outreach services, helping to strengthen the organisation’s financial sustainability.

The Outreach Manager will lead the projects and schools’ delivery teams, ensuring consistent quality, staff support, and effective communication with staff, partners and funders. The role involves a balance of Outreach management and hands-on cycle training delivery, including occasional participation in cycle training sessions (typically 1-2 times a week in the busier periods).
