We are looking for enthusiastic and energetic people who relish a challenge whatever the weather! 
As our Ad Bike representative, your role will be to cycle round towns and cities across the UK promoting our clients recruitment campaign.                                                                                                                                    

The ad bike will boast a small company branded advertising trailer, allowing the public to see who are recruiting. One hour you may be cycling round town the next you may be in a park, this is an exciting role where every day is guaranteed to be different.
As well as riding the bike, you will be required to stop in areas of high footfall for maximum exposure (depending on the campaign, a flyer give-away may also form part of your role).

This unique role is a fantastic opportunity for people who prefer to work in the outdoors, it is also a great way of keeping fit! 

&lt;i&gt; You will ideally own a bicycle in good working order. &lt;/i&gt;
