Transport Administrator - Bristol, United Kingdom - Nailsea and District Community Transport Ltd

Description

Nailsea and District Community Transport Limited is seeking a self-motivated individual willing to be flexible in the tasks they perform on a daily basis and will work in the office, manage the fleet of vehicles and also drive the vehicles where necessary.

NDCT operates out of an office on an Industrial Estate in Nailsea and has a staff of 10 part-time people with 11 minibuses.

We serve around 500 elderly and disabled members providing them with local transport for shopping, trips to hospitals, dentists, day-care centres as well as day trips.

This service enables them to lead a normal life when they are unable to use conventional public transport. We have 4 office
- based staff, a small team of paid drivers and a team of approx. 16 volunteer drivers providing the services. There is free staff parking on the premises.

This post is office based so the person that we are looking for needs to have a range of IT skills (MS Office, Excel Database, Outlook) as well as the capability to drive minibuses.

The applicant needs to hold a B or preferably a D1 on their driving licence (or may hold a PSV) and will be expected to liaise with local garages, log vehicle issues to ensure that the vehicles are repaired, maintained and fully safety checked for their safe operation.

The office tasks apart from logging vehicle related issues will be taking phone bookings, planning driver routes and maintaining daily a dedicated Community Transport database together with liaising with drivers and sorting out driver rotas.

The person needs to be very flexible in their approach to the job as they will have to both drive when required (to cover some driver gaps during the working week) as well as work as part of the office admin team.

It is a small team and so a sunny and methodical disposition, with an eye for detail are important attributes.

The postholder will report to the Team Leader who has overall responsibility for operations.
