In this rewarding role, you will help provide specialist transport services for a wide range of passengers, including children with special educational needs, adults with disabilities, social care clients and members of the public accessing bespoke transport services.
This is a varied and engaging role where no two days are the same. You will work with a dynamic range of people, building positive relationships with passengers, families, carers, drivers, schools, and care providers, while ensuring every journey is safe, comfortable, and dignified.
