Role details

We currently have a vacancy for a Bus Control Centre Manager to join our Mobility Services Team.

This is a brand new role, created to manage a new centralised bus control centre function currently in development, as part of the transition to a franchised bus network in West Yorkshire. As Bus Control Centre Manager, you will be responsible for managing the day to day operation and development of the service, to ensure delivery of business objectives to provide positive outcomes for the benefit of bus users, bus companies and the Combined Authority.

In this high-profile role, you will have a real opportunity to apply your knowledge and experience to help shape and build centralised bus control across West Yorkshire. Working closely with colleagues across the Combined Authority and its partners, a key part of your responsibilities as Bus Control Centre Manager will be engaging with local district partners to minimise disruption and keep buses moving across the network. The role will also be integral to supporting and influencing future expansion of the service and supporting the work of the Mayor.

This role will operate on a shift pattern, however further detail of this in operational terms is still to be finalised. If you are undertaking shift work, you will receive a shift allowance of no less than 12.5% of salary. Shift work is a pattern of work with defined start and end times over the course of the day which are defined blocks of time, rotated across the course of the day and week and vary over a set period of time. 

It is important that you demonstrate how your breadth of experience, knowledge and skills align with the role when applying. We have therefore created comprehensive guidance for candidates, and you are strongly urged to read this before completing your application form.
