Full job description

Exciting volunteering opportunities have arisen within South Western Ambulance NHS Foundation Trust for Fleet & Equipment Volunteer Drivers to join our Ambulance Vehicle Preparation teams in Wiltshire and Devon.

We welcome applicants from across the counties but are specifically interested in offering roles based at Trowbridge and Exeter . Volunteers will be expected to be able to arrive at their designated base location to begin their volunteering session.

The Volunteer Driver role will support the Ambulance Vehicle Preparations (AVP) within the Fleet & Equipment function to move ambulances and other vehicles around the respective county, so they are in the right places for cleaning, maintenance, and re-stocking and support the movement of equipment if desired and needed, across the Fleet & Equipment department.

The Logistics Volunteer Role is to assist the AVP/Fleet & Equipment Team in the movement of vehicles.

The aim of AVP is to support A&E Operations by providing clean, stocked ambulances that are ready for our colleagues to deliver patient care.

The South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust offers volunteer placements across the organisation with both patient facing, and non-patient facing roles. This role description summarises the Logistics volunteering role and will be supported by local inductions specific to the tasks applicable at that AVP site. The role is non-patient facing (does not deliver clinical care / assessments to patients)

As a Logistics volunteer you are a valued member of our service, supporting our organisation to deliver its mission, vision and uphold our values, willingly and without pay. This role is highly rewarding and offers opportunities to meet new people and learn valuable social and lifesaving skills through the training and ongoing support provided by South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust. As the Logistics volunteer will be moving SWAST assets around our counties they will be provided with Basic Life support and First Aid training. The volunteer is not obliged to support an incident if they come across it, but if it is safe and they feel competent they could assist whilst awaiting emergency services to attend

Applicants will have a good all round education; a full driving license held for at least one year (including C1 category), with no more than 6 current penalty points. Following shortlisting, applicants will be invited to attend a role suitability discussion, whereby they will be expected to have some knowledge of the role and South Western Ambulance NHS Foundation Trust.

Candidates will be offered an organisational and local workshop induction and receive training and a driving assessment in order to complete the recruitment process and commence volunteering sessions. They will also need to complete some online Mandatory Training Modules before starting the role.

Further adverts for this role may follow later in the year for the current areas and other areas of the Trust – you can register your interest via an Expression of Interest form on the Volunteering section of the SWASFT website and be notified of any future
