From the playground to the podium and everything in between, Scottish Cycling is the Scottish Governing Body (SGB) of cycle sport. Working across the seven different disciplines of cycling, we are committed to developing a nation of cyclists, maximising participation for all and delivering international success.
Our home base is the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome, which is a world class facility and regularly hosts many international competitions including the highly successful first ever combined UCI Cycling World Championships in the summer of 2023.
Our mission is to inspire and support everyone to enjoy riding a bike and have the opportunity to realise their full potential. As the largest cycling membership organisation in Scotland, we are the voice of our sport, representing the aspirations of our community. Our strategic plan – Developing a Nation of Cyclists 2.0 – details our mission, vision and golden threads and outlines how we will continue the successful development of cycle sport in Scotland. In 2023, we were proudly awarded the Governing Body of the Year at the Scottish Sports Awards.
About the role
In 2027, Scotland will host the prestigious Tour de France Grand Départ, a momentous event with the potential to create lasting social change. A dedicated project team is being established to drive the development and delivery of a transformative social impact strategy that leverages cycling to improve lives across Scotland.
We are seeking a dynamic, talented, and passionate Communications Coordinator to support the digital communications and storytelling that bring the Tour de France Grand Départ social impact strategy to life; inspiring participation, supporting programme delivery, strengthening partnerships, and evidencing impact before, during and after the 2027 Grand Départ.
The post holder will lead on the day-to-day management of all communications activity linked to the Tour de France social impact programme, working closely with the rest of the Scottish Cycling Marketing & Communications team, and the wider social impact team. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a globally recognised event, raising the profile of cycle sport in Scotland, and deliver lasting change to improve lives across Scotland.
