Role
The key aspect of the role requires you to be responsible for safely transporting veterans with sight loss, to and from the activity hub in West Lothian. Our driving team play a huge part in ensuring that the veterans can attend the Activity Hubs and are at times needed to provide support to ensure veterans can access the vehicles.
As the welcoming face of Sight Scotland Veterans, you will often be the first contact the veterans have each day, and as such are an important representative for the organisation. The veterans enjoy chatting with the driving team whilst on the vehicles and a welcoming and friendly personality is an asset. You will work be working in a fun and friendly environment.
You don’t need to meet every single requirement to be a great candidate. Most people learn parts of the job once they’re in post, so if a role interests you and you believe you could grow into it, we’d love to hear from you.
