You will work as part of a team alongside Planners, Help Desk Agents, Logistics Specialists and other Site Controllers.

Some of the key responsibilities are:

Resource & Route Management: Assess patient mobility, special needs, and staff availability to allocate resources, plan efficient daily routes, and handle routine transport in a timely manner.
Team Coordination & Support: Coordinate Ambulance Care Assistants and Emergency Medical Technicians, provide ongoing guidance, and assist with shift rosters and holiday/sickness administration.
Service Delivery & Quality: Ensure contracted services meet required standards and KPIs, maintain high resource utilization while managing costs, and act as the primary point of contact for routine matters.
Communication & Professionalism: Treat all callers respectfully and courteously, liaise with customers and management to identify issues, and promote team morale and customer focus.
Compliance & Administration: Maintain accurate records, analyze data to recommend best practices, ensure vehicles are roadworthy, and adhere strictly to safety procedures and policies.

Strong communication, problem-solving, time management and IT skills, including proficiency in Microsoft Office and Google, are essential, alongside the ability to manage multiple tasks, prioritise effectively and use your initiative to achieve results.

You must also be willing to undertake all required training, including manual handling, risk assessment, customer service, client induction, advanced driving and first aid.
