Bike Trade Recruitment Drive Continues as BikeBiz Jobs Board Passes 570 Placements
The UK cycling industry’s recruitment scene remains buoyant, with the BikeBiz jobs board confirming it has helped fill more than 570 positions across the trade so far in 2025. According to the latest figures, the number of vacancies being listed continues to climb, suggesting employers are still keen to bring in fresh talent despite wider economic pressures on the sector.
Among this week’s standout roles is a Brand Specialist position with Mohawk’s UK, the distributor tasked with growing Pivot Cycles’ presence in Britain. The successful candidate will act as the primary contact for the American mountain bike brand, shaping how it is marketed and represented to UK dealers and riders alike.
The wider top five listings, covering everything from retail management to marketing and technical roles, reflect a trade that is still actively hiring even as some retailers report tighter margins. Recruiters say demand remains strongest for candidates with both cycling knowledge and commercial experience, particularly in brand and product management functions.
For readers within the industry, or those considering a career move into the trade, the growing jobs board offers a useful barometer of where investment is being channelled. Brand-facing roles such as the Pivot position suggest manufacturers and distributors are prioritising stronger UK representation, a sign that competition for shelf space and rider loyalty in the performance mountain bike market shows no sign of easing.
While this may seem like inside-baseball for most riders, a healthy jobs market often points to healthier bike shops, better-resourced brand support, and improved access to expertise on the shop floor – all of which ultimately benefit anyone walking in to buy a bike or seek advice on their next upgrade.
