About
Who we are, why we built this, and how we work.
The Cycling Brief is the job board, and future home, for the business of cycling.
Mission
The default place professionals get hired in cycling.
The cycling industry is built by thousands of people across manufacturing, retail, teams, brands and logistics. Until now, they've had no dedicated place to find the companies hiring them, or to be found. That's the gap we're closing.
Founder
Who built this, and why.
“The bike industry hires through whispers, group chats and the same handful of forums. The people who build and love cycling deserve better than that.”
I started as a young cyclist and later became a level 3 cycling coach. Along the way I built a YouTube channel, Segredos do Ciclismo, that grew past 20,000 subscribers, at first about training and the sport. Over my 10 years in cycling, I kept running into the same problem: it's hard to hire people who actually understand how the bike industry works. The most brilliant people are sometimes impossible to find, hidden without even a LinkedIn profile, reachable only through a deep personal network.
Years passed, and I pivoted into Digital Marketing and Analytics, and later into Data Project Management, working with data and software. Cycling never left my heart, I just picked up a new set of tools.
The Cycling Brief is me bringing those tools back to the industry I came from: the serious, credible place to hire and be hired that I always wished existed, built in the open, one piece at a time.

How we work
Commitments, not slogans.
A few principles we hold to, even when they cost us.
Profiles are private by default.
Your candidate profile isn't public, isn't searchable, and isn't visible to other candidates. A recruiter only sees it when you apply to their listing, and only for that role.
We're honest about our data.
Some listings are curated from companies' public careers pages, and we say so. Matching is based on tags and is informative only, it never makes an automated hiring decision.
Specialist, not generic.
We focus on the bike industry and go deep on it, rather than being a generic board that happens to carry a few cycling jobs.
