21 Jan 2014 Join the PPA team as our Safe Cycling Co-ordinator
For the past three years, the Pedal Power Association, a Public Benefit Organisation (PBO 18/11/13/2410), has been actively campaigning to improve the conditions of cyclists on the roads, running various local and national initiatives to bring across the message that CYCLISTS STAY ALIVE AT 1.5m. The Association is now looking for a highly organised go-getter to co-ordinate the campaign and take it to the next level.
Amongst others, the successful applicant would be expected to co-ordinate all logistics and on-the-day activations around safe cycling mass participation rides, silent protests, various safety-related initiatives like helmet hand-outs, expo’s and at major events. The safe cycling co-ordinator will also manage the brand in general with the input of the safe cycling committee, including managing various marketing and media initiatives and promotions. Excellent attention to detail will assist in managing the budget.
Previous work experience is a must, as is computer literacy, the ability to work independently and under pressure and to think out of the box. Own transport and valid driver’s license required. As events and expo’s generally take place on weekends, weekend work and event attendance will be required, as well as willingness to travel.
The position is available soonest at the Association’s offices in Mowbray, Cape Town. Please email your CV by close of business on Monday 27 January 2014 to Cathi Botha at cathi@guardianrecruiting.co.za.
