    About Us:


    Vectare is an award-winning transport consultancy and technology company, supplying educational establishments, corporate clients, and the public sector with creative solutions to enhance their transport provision.

    We're a young company, founded in 2016, which means we're innovative, agile and a fun place to work.

    Our small team works to the highest standards and we expect everybody to focus on high quality service delivery and attention to detail.

    Guidance will be provided throughout your time on placement with us by our experienced management team.

    You'll work closely with our Directors, and you'll have much more access to, and insight from, these senior leaders than you would get in a larger business.

    At Vectare, we believe very strongly in valuing our staff, both as people and for the contribution that they can make to all levels of the business.

    This means that we'll treat you with respect, and we'll expect you to extend that same respect to everybody who you work with, at all levels of the business.

    We don't recognise the concept of somebody being 'just a placement student' – instead, we recognise each person as somebody with a specific skillset who does a job that aligns with that skillset.

    Directors will frequently ask your opinion about high-level business decisions, and equally we'll want and expect you to speak up if you think of something that we could be doing better.

    Feedback is an essential part of our culture, and as such we need you to feel confident about sharing your opinions with senior management - this is very important for our business growth.

    We work closely with over 100 independent schools around the United Kingdom and in this role you will be the first point of contact to the senior management teams.

    This could range from resolving parental enquiries, to advising clients on the profitability of key transport decisions.


    About You:


    To fit in and be successful at Vectare, you'll need to be an enthusiastic individual who canconfidently answer 'yes' to all these questions:Do I work well independently, and as part of a team?Am I a good communicator, in person, over the phone and in writing?Can I work on my own initiative, and use discretion and autonomy to solve problems proactively and compassionately?Am I innovative? Do I often come up with creative solutions to problems, rather than just implementing other people's solutions?Have I got excellent attention to detail?Am I able to spot problems and notice when things aren't quite right? Can I create solutions to these problems using my own initiative?Can I be flexible, calm under pressure and able to cope with a fast pace of change?Am I good at logistics, and capable of coordinating things?Am I able to manage multiple responsibilities at once by focusing on one task whilst keeping track of others?Do I want to take the lead on the delivery of projects, being given independence and authority to make decisions and deliver results?You will be exposed to varying elements of the transport industry, but no previous experience is required to develop your interest.

    We will provide full training and support during your placement, and there will also be the opportunity to complete industry-related qualifications.

    To be considered for this position you must have a full, manual category B (car) driving license and the unrestricted right to live and work in the UK without sponsorship.

    To apply for this role please, email , attaching your CV and cover letter.

    Deadline for applicationsFriday 19th April 2024.Placement Length45 weeks, but optional extension beyond this through to the start of the employee's finalyear at university, by mutual agreement.
