We are recruiting a UK Business Engagement Manager (BEM) to join our project team and

UK.
Love to Ride
Love to Ride is the online platform that gets more people riding bikes.
Both a web platform and App – people can log trips, set goals, post photos and stories,
receive localised and tailored information, win prizes, and take part in our rolling calendar
of engaging challenges throughout the year known as Ride 365. By taking part we support
individuals, communities and businesses, to cycle more often, more confidently and long-term
for transportation.
With 15 years of experience in delivering successful cycling behaviour change projects
right around the world, we have a solid reputation as a specialist social business creating
positive change. As well as encouraging existing riders to ride more often and commute by bike,
we also support people returning to or completely new to cycling. We help individuals overcome
real and perceived barriers and advocate for local cycling organisations and partners in
project areas. We then monitor, measure and report on the outcomes.
