Passenger Transport is an important team that is responsible for transporting people who would otherwise find it difficult to access vital services such as schools, care centres and community activity groups.
We operate 198 specialist passenger transport vehicles and undertake the management of around 450 private hire transports every day. Most roles recruited to this service are drivers and passenger assistants.
It’s important we get people where they need to be on time, so we are looking for people who are organised and have good time management skills. Many of our customers are vulnerable, and it’s vital our team members are polite, patient, and compassionate towards them. We’ll always ensure you receive appropriate training and we genuinely care about the health and wellbeing of our employees.
Our colleagues say:
Kallum, Administration Assistant
“Assisting in the delivery of daily transport for up to 4000 vulnerable customers is one of the most rewarding parts of my career. This, along with having such an amazing and positive working relationship with my colleagues is what keeps me motivated.”
Thomas, Transport Scheduler
“I know I’m valued by my colleagues and management team, and I feel that there’s a clear pathway for me to progress in my career and fulfil my ambitions. Leeds City Council has always been a very supportive, flexible and loyal employer for which I am very grateful for.”
