This is not a typical customer service role.

We’re recruiting for a Customer Service – 999 position within a safety-critical, real-time operations environment at the forefront of transport technology. You’ll be the calm, decisive voice supporting live incidents where judgement, clarity and composure genuinely matter.

If you’ve worked in 999, emergency call handling, control rooms, dispatch, or high-pressure customer service, this is a chance to do something different without losing the sense of purpose.

What you’ll be doing

Handling live emergency and incident-related calls

Providing real-time guidance during complex and unusual situations

Supporting vehicles through restricted routes, obstructions and unexpected scenarios

Monitoring behaviour and intervening where safety could be compromised

Making fast, balanced decisions under pressure

Communicating clearly in dynamic, high-stakes environments

Reviewing incidents to improve future responses

What we’re looking for

Minimum 1 year’s experience in 999, emergency call handling, control room, dispatch or similar high-pressure customer service

Strong de-escalation and decision-making skills

Calm, composed and detail-focused under pressure

Confident communicator with a safety-first mindset

Comfortable using multiple systems and adapting to new technology

Full UK driving licence with 3+ years’ driving experience and a clean record

Flexibility to support a 24/7 operation, including nights and bank holidays

What’s on offer

£32,000 salary

Private medical, dental, life insurance & income protection

Company pension

28 days’ holiday plus Birthday Leave

Referral incentive scheme

A genuinely meaningful role contributing to the future of transport safety
