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.
About the role
Are you a caring, reliable driver looking to make a difference? While minibus experience or a background in a similar role is an advantage, it is not essential. We are looking for a caring, flexible, and committed person to help transport clients who require additional support to and from a range of different venues.
You will be helping to make sure all our passengers enjoy a safe and comfortable journey:
- 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.
What can we offer you?
In addition to your salary, we offer a range of great benefits to help you financially and make life a bit easier:
- a local government pension scheme with generous employer contribution
- salary sacrifice schemes
- employee discount benefits including shopping, supermarkets, gym discounts and more
- Health Assured – confidential help and support for your wellbeing
- learning, development and career advancement opportunities
