BikeBiz Bicycle and cycling retail news
Cycling Sports Group UK has once again made a series of appointments to bolster a number of departments. The new recruits will fill roles in the accounts, sales and warehouse, including one new position overseeing stock provision.
The firm has seen a flurry of recruitmentactivity in the months since the creation of the new subsidiary of CSG in October last year, following Dorel’s acquisition of Hot Wheels and Circle Bikes.
Damian Morris, who answered an ad placed on Bikebiz.com, becomes inventory control manager at CSG UK’s Poole office. Morris is a self-confessed computer nerd, but he does also ride a bike. He is also a keen cyclo-cross rider and rides the 20 miles to work whenever possible. Morris’s role is to improve stock provision through 2010/11.
In addition, accounts assistant Sharon Wyatt has joined the firm. Wyatt passed her AAT Foundation and is now working towards her Intermediate exam. Wyatt likes a nice ride along Bournemouth beach on her Trek bike (which she knows she will have to change if she stays).
Telesales man Simon Burch joined the team in April and rides a hardtail bike. Burch previously worked at Halfords and has a degree in graphic design. In an effort to fit in, Burch bought a huge bag of sweets back for all the staff from his holiday in Turkey. Looks like he will be sticking around.
Tom McConnell has joined CSG to work in the Poole warehouse. McConnell is training to be a retained fireman and has a degree in mechanical engineering. McConnell is a keen cyclist and already has his eye on a new GT Zaskar.
