If you love working with people and naturally look out for others, you’re exactly who we’re looking for.
Across North Yorkshire, our Integrated Passenger Transport Operations Team keeps our community moving. Our extensive network of more than 120 vehicles, mainly minibuses, and approximately 340 drivers and passenger assistants work tirelessly to deliver safe, reliable transport where it’s needed most. From providing essential local bus services to unlocking access to learning, employment, and social centres, we ensure nobody gets left behind.
By joining us, you become a lifeline for our community. We bridge the gap to critical community hubs, enabling independent access to education, supported employment, day centres, and other meaningful activities. The team delivers approximately 250,000 passenger journeys per year including 20,000 wheelchair user journeys.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
About The Role

- Driving accessible and non-accessible minibuses and other vehicles along with undertaking minor vehicle repairs as and when necessary
- Ensuring all passengers board, travel, and alight safely, while ensuring that any safety equipment is used correctly. Full equipment training is provided.
- Using your great communication skills to connect and collaborate with school and centre staff, parents, carers and colleagues
D1 or D1 (101) entitlement on your driving licence is an essential requirement for this role.
We offer a comprehensive training package including Minibus Driver Awareness Training Scheme (MIDAS), Basic First Aid and Managing Challenging Behaviour.
Please note that the salary advertised is the full time equivalent rate.
