You will deliver a varied weekly cycling programme that is always safe, fun, and precisely tailored to your guests. You will interact with individuals from all walks of life at varying fitness levels, enabling you to inspire and continually expand your personal experience.

In addition to your regular guiding duties, you will also work closely with our Children's Activity Leaders to run kids' sessions introducing younger riders to the sport.

We're looking for friendly, energetic, and approachable people who can build rapport with ease. Individuals who can instil confidence that every element of a Neilson holiday is delivered by a team who cares.
