To be successful, you need to be based close to Crawley, West Sussex, hold a full and valid UK or EU/EAA driving licence, and have access to your own vehicle. Service users are based locally; however, you may need to use your car to help them attend appointments.

In return you will be offered:

• Very competitive pay rate starting at £14.20ph
• Private Medical Plan

• Pension Scheme
• Paid Holiday & Training
