Bank Driver and Activities Assistant – closing date 30 November 2024

The Bank Driver and Activity Assistant is a fun and sociable role. It involves transporting visually impaired people in one of our minibuses, usually from their homes to one of our activities.

You will actively participate in our varied programme of events and activities. Examples include walks, picnics, coffee mornings, workshops, golf and tennis. The role includes the driving of our minibus, carrying out vehicle checks and maintaining the internal cleanliness of the vehicles.

A level of basic fitness is required for this role and the post holder must hold a full driving licence with D1 entitlement to drive a minibus. If you passed your driving test before 1997 in the UK, you will very likely automatically have a D1 entitlement on your license.
