05 May 2014 Join the PPA team as Safe Cycling Campaign Manager
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’ and avid cyclist who is passionate about the safety of cyclists, to take the campaign to the next level, based on international best practises around safe cycling.
The Safe Cycling Campaign Manager will manage the brand in general with the input of PPA’s safe cycling sub-committee, including managing various marketing and media initiatives and promotions. As such, corporate experience, strong marketing and advertising skills and experience with putting together sponsorship proposals will be an advantage. The successful applicant will be comfortable in doing presentations at Board level.
The position will be suited to someone re-entering the marketplace. Strong administrative skills are a must, as is computer literacy, the ability to work independently and under pressure and to think out of the box. Excellent attention to detail will assist in managing the campaign budget.
Own transport and valid driver’s license required. Some weekend work will be required, as well as willingness to travel.
Start date: 1 September 2014 or sooner. The position is based at the Association’s offices in Cape Town’s southern suburbs. Remuneration will be in line with experience.
