Working at Slow Ways CIC

What we do

What if there was a network of walking routes that connected all of Great Britain’s towns and cities? That’s what we are making. Want to help us?

We are working to inspire more people to walk and wheel more often, further, and for more purposes by creating a new national walking network. Collaborating with others is at the heart of what we do.

As a visionary community-interest-company Slow Ways has received 7 years of funding from the Lottery Fund, to create transformational change across an ecosystem.

Our dynamic core team of 8 together with tens of thousands of contributors and supporters are spread across England, Scotland and Wales.

UK's first fully verified walking network

Who you'll work with

We are looking for people who will:

  • Care for and contribute to our community’s needs, diversity and cohesion
  • Enjoy being outdoors and excited by the idea of using Slow Ways
  • Be happy to get their hands (and feet) dirty
  • Be playful and willing to experiment with ideas
  • Be agile, flexible and open minded

You do not need to:

  • Be a “walker”
  • Live in the countryside
  • Be able to read maps

Inclusion matters to us. We are particularly interested in hearing from people who have lived experience, or experience of working with/for marginalised and minoritised groups.

Unique benefits of all our roles include:

  • Flexible working with job shares considered
  • Time and budget to walk or wheel Slow Ways
  • Annual training budget and conference allowance
  • “Walking leave” bonuses if we hit our targets
  • Accruement of one reflective journey day for every year of service
