About Us
RideWise is a Nottingham-based charity helping communities make greener, healthier travel choices. We deliver cycle training, sustainable transport projects, and outreach that reduces carbon emissions and promotes wellbeing. Our work has a big impact - and we do it with a small, passionate team.
About the Role
We’re looking for a proactive and community-minded Project Manager to help us deliver a range of active travel and sustainable transport projects.
You’ll lead on the coordination of community based cycle confidence training, manage project logistics and monitoring, and support people across Nottingham to adopt greener ways of moving around. The role also involves engaging with community partners, schools, and businesses, creating compelling programmes to suit their needs and abilities.
The RideWise team works virtually but there will be some regular travel to visit community partners, take part in face to face team meetings and prepare for events. Travel will be reimbursed.
This is a varied role where no two days are the same - and one where you’ll see the positive impact of your work immediately.
About You

- Organised and skilled at juggling multiple priorities
- A confident communicator and collaborator
- Practical, with a “hands-on” attitude
- Experienced in Project Management
- Able to produce monitoring reports, programme delivery plans and project budgets
- Passionate about sustainability and community wellbeing
- Desirable – have an interest in cycling or a cycling related qualification such as Bikeability Level 2 Instruction
A background or understanding of community-based sports or physical activity would be a real advantage, helping you to connect with our audiences and promote the benefits of active lifestyles.
You’ll need to be confident using Microsoft Teams and digital tools and be happy to travel to various sites around Nottingham.
Key Responsibilities
- Coordinate the delivery of green transport projects in schools, communities, and workplaces
- Support local people through community engagement
- Monitor project outcomes, record data, and assist with evaluation and reporting
- Create adaptable project delivery plans and then see them through to completion
- Build and maintain strong relationships with local partners and stakeholders
What We Offer
- A friendly, values-driven team with a strong local reputation
- Flexible, home-based working with some local travel as and when required - non standard working hours can be accomodated
- Opportunity to make a real difference to communities and the environment
To Apply
If you're passionate about greener transport, enjoy working with communities, and have strong project delivery skills, we’d love to hear from you.
Please apply with your CV and a brief covering statement outlining your suitability for the role.

If your idea of a great day at work involves leading a walk in the countryside, singing with a group, trying a new activity, supporting someone to regain confidence and finishing the day knowing you've genuinely made a difference, we'd love to hear from you.
At Younger People with Dementia (YPWD), we support adults diagnosed with young onset dementia (diagnosed under the age of 65) to remain active, connected and independent through meaningful activities, one-to-one support and community programmes.
This isn't a personal care role. It's about helping people continue to live well, enjoy life and do the things that matter most to them.
What You'll Do
As part of our friendly and supportive team, you'll help deliver a wide range of engaging activities, from art, walking and singing to katakanuing, reader groups and community outings. You'll also provide one-to-one support, help plan future sessions and complete the records that enable us to deliver safe, high-quality services.

You don't need to be an expert in dementia, we can teach that. What matters most is your attitude, your values and your willingness to learn.
The Kind of Person Who Thrives Here
At YPWD, our values are Inclusive, Supportive, Enabling and Innovative. They're not just words on a wall, they shape how we work every day.
We work hard, laugh often, support each other and leave egos at the door. We value people who are kind, humble and willing to roll up their sleeves when needed. We communicate openly, celebrate each other's successes and focus on finding solutions rather than blame.
If you're someone who enjoys being part of a team, brings a positive attitude and wants to make a genuine difference, you'll fit right in.
If you're looking for workplace politics, unnecessary drama or somewhere to simply 'do your hours', we're probably not the right organisation for you. If you're looking for meaningful work with great people, we'd love to hear from you.
