Job Description

- Enjoy working with young people, or looking to gain experience in this?
- Want to earn £550 a week, with free camping accommodation and food
Join us in the beautiful south of France at our outdoor activity adventure camp. Be part of our team and help us to expand our students’ horizons and transform their self-esteem.
We are delighted to be making an appointment for a Minibus Driver for the duration of our annual seven-week outdoor Residential Trip to Vallon, France. The trip commences around the 1 June 2023 and runs until approximately 25 July 2023, exact dates to be confirmed. As the main Minibus Driver on camp, you will drive the mini bus and equipment from the Rodillian Academy in Wakefield to Vallon in France. You will also be one of the main minibus drivers during the seven-week stay, transporting both staff and students to and from a range of activities and locations in the area. You will be provided with camping accommodation (individual tent & air bed), 3 meals per day at no additional cost, and when driving services are not required, you will have free time to relax in your own private space or take part in any of the exciting activities.
You will be expected to be organised, drive in a safe and professional manner, follow UK and European driving rules and regulations and ensure the EU driving card is in place at all times. You will also ideally hold a current First Aid qualification although this is not essential. Trust staff will be responsible for students at all times, but you will be expected to behave in a professional manner and act as an adult role model to students at all times.
Please note that the exemption which allows you to drive a minibus in the UK on your car licence, whether you passed your driving test before or after January 1997, does not allow you to drive a minibus in other EU countries. Candidates must have current D1 entitlement on your licence, gained by passing a D1 driving test. You cannot drive a minibus abroad if you only have an ordinary ‘B’ car driving licence.
The Rodillian Multi Academy Trust believes that traditional values of discipline and respect are sacrosanct. We do not tolerate bullying, defiance or rudeness to staff and this has made for a harmonious and safe learning environment for our young people, and a supportive environment for staff.
The Rodillian Multi Academy Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and we expect all staff, volunteers, visitors and contractors to share this commitment. Shortlisted applicants will undergo relevant checks in line with statutory guidance and all appointees will be required to undertake an Enhanced Disclosure check by the Disclosure and Barring Service.
