Introduction

We’re looking for an experienced Minibus Driver to join our team based in New Milton and become a valued part of day-to-day life in our luxury nursing homes.

This is no ordinary driving job.

You’ll be carrying our wonderful residents on exciting excursions, helping them feel safe and secure and providing the highest standards of service. You’ll work closely with our Activities Organisers, placing our residents’ health, welfare and interests first, at all times.

When not out on day trips, you’ll be responsible for transferring residents to hospital and other important appointments, and you’ll look after the general maintenance and upkeep of the vehicle.

Ideally, you’ll already hold a valid PSV licence. However, if you meet our ‘About You’ criteria, we’ll support you in obtaining this.

If applying your driving and customer service skills to the care environment is for you, and you want to be part of something truly special, we’d love you to apply. A member of our dedicated recruitment team will then be in touch to discuss the role in more detail.

About you

You’ll have a genuine interest in the needs of elderly people, and an understanding of the care home environment. You’re polite, courteous, and respectful, with good communications skills and kind manner. You’re approachable, with a can-do attitude and a passion for helping our residents make the most of their trips out of the home.
