Becoming a Superhero
Why join us?
We’re proud of our happy home and are dedicated to creating a place where everyone enjoys coming to work each day.
As well being part of a lively and supportive team, we are surrounded by fascinating residents who also bring so much to our lives every day too.
About the role
As our Mini Bus Driver, you will be responsible for the safety and comfort of our residents when driving them to their destinations. You will carry out daily safety and cleaning checks of the vehicle and report any issues to the home manager. You will interact with our residents on a daily basis - so you’ll be friendly, caring and kind whilst respecting our resident’s dignity at all times.
Here’s some other important things you need to know:
- You must have a full, clean drivers’ licence and clean criminal record – you will be driving a car and a minibus and so will need to provide documentary evidence of D1 on your licence
- You’ll complete all relevant paperwork and fill in log sheets as required on a daily basis.
