About us
NewGen Bikes was born from a desire to bring a fresh look to electric bikes. We believe that e-bikes shouldn’t be boring and that only strong design, quality and style can drive a change of consumer behaviour and the shift to electric transportation.
Supporting such a step change in consumer behaviour is certainly not easy but with a team full of ambition and talent we have risen to the challenge. As our community grows we are beginning to make a name for ourselves as a young British lifestyle brand with high quality bikes and great customer service.
The Role
We are accelerating our expansion in the UK and, with the team growing and our first London store opening imminently, are looking for a jack of all trades to help with managing the office and the day to day operations in the store. As the person responsible for making everything run smoothly and being the friendly point of contact to customers, you will join the company in a critical role, working directly with the founders, at a turning point in our journey.
What you will be responsible for:
- Be the central point of contact at the office. We all travel quite a lot and are at different places at different times. By being the one dedicated staff based in London you will act as the centre point for the team and be a key contributor to maintaining an environment and culture we all enjoy being a part of
- Welcome and guide customers in store and facilitate sales by answering questions, organising test rides and following up on requests where required
- Deal with customer after sale enquiries and coordinate with the London workshop and the team in Somerset to arrange repair
- Deal with customer sale enquiries over the phone and email
- Pick up calls, post, book van collections and organise deliveries to customers
- Make sure all invoices are input correctly, customer orders are accounted for properly in the different IT platforms and generally make sure all admin is under control
- Support the team on ad hoc projects where needed
What we are looking for:
- A self-starter looking to make an impact and who shares our ambition to transform the way people travel for good.
- Passion for quality consumer products and lifestyle brands, the outdoors and/or the bike culture
- Being a natural when it comes to bringing people together, rolling up your sleeves and making things happen
- At least 1-2 years of experience in an office management or in store role
What you’ll get:
A unique opportunity to work at the forefront in e-mobility, one of the hottest and fastest growing sectors right now.
A culture is based on trust, transparency, communication, and collaboration. We like bouncing ideas off each other, value candid and constructive feedback and are all aligned to make things happen, inspire one another and create value for the business.
You can expect to receive:
- A competitive salary
- Participation in the employee share option plan ahead of the next round of fundraising
- 25 days holiday + bank holidays + holiday for tenure
- Generous employee discount on your own 345
