We love all our staff, check out what some of our past staff have to say about us.
I worked at The Bicycle Chain for approximately 10 years. During this time, I gained valuable experience in both sales and as a mechanic. I was always supported by both my manager and the owner to achieve the goals I set myself. I was given great opportunities to further my skills by attending many trade shows and completing the Cytech NVQ qualification. This is what enabled me to start out as a Saturday Mechanic and finish as an Assistant/Workshop Manager.
The friendly atmosphere enabled me to form great friendships and offered many opportunities to bond as a team both in and out of work. Working for The Bicycle Chain was a lot of fun and very rewarding. Your work and efforts were always appreciated.
I truly enjoyed working for The Bicycle Chain and can honestly say that I would recommend them as an employer.

I was very fortunate to join The Bicycle Chain straight out of sixth form at age 18 and what a fantastic experience it was! I think the first thing I saw from day one is just what it means to work in a family run business that prides itself on customer service.
I had a real passion for cycling, particularly mountain biking and it was fantastic that I was able to share this with both the staff and the customers.
This was my first real job and I worked mainly in a sales role, which at busy times really was a great buzz as the team pulled together to reach targets and the results were very rewarding. I loved how I was involved in a whole range of different aspects of the business, being able to help out in the workshop, build new bikes and even go out on demo days run by the brands we sold!
