About Vectare
Vectare is an award-winning transport consultancy and technology company, providing creative solutions to enhance the transport provision of educational establishments, corporate clients, and the public sector.
We’re a young company, founded in 2016, which means we’re innovative, agile, and a fun place to work. Our small team works to the highest standards, and we expect everyone to focus on delivering high-quality service and attention to detail. You’ll work closely with our Senior Management Team, and you’ll have much more access to and insight from these senior leaders than you would get in a larger business.
At Vectare, we strongly believe in valuing our staff, both as individuals and for the contributions they can make to all levels of the business. This means that we’ll treat you with respect, and we’ll expect you to extend that same respect to everybody you work with, at all levels of the business.
Feedback is an essential part of our culture, and as such, we need you to feel confident about sharing your opinions with senior management. This is crucial for our business growth.
We work closely with over 200+ independent schools around the United Kingdom, and we are seeking growth in both the domestic and International Markets.
Role Overview
Vectare is looking for a proactive, empathetic, and customer-focused individual to join our Customer Services Team based at our Loughborough Head Office. As a key member of the team, you’ll play a vital role in delivering an outstanding experience to parents and schools who rely on our school bus services.
