Job description
Here's a few questions for you...
Would you like to work in an environment that nurtures and supports people? Where saying we're flexible actually means a healthy flexible work and home life balance, where you'd be able to work 2 days from home and enjoy the benefits of flexi-time as well?
How about a benefits package which can include free parking or private dental care, duvet days, dental plan and birthday day off?
Well...
If you're attracted to working in that type of distinctive and flexible culture, then joining Fleet Alliance might be the right move for you.

Rest assured, we are always looking to improve and allow our people to develop and hopefully stay with us to build a long term career.
Working with us, you will be able to enjoy a flexible working pattern of 2 days working from home and 3 in the office, so you can have a better balance of working and combining your personal commitments. We have found that our people have settled into being able to work from home really well over the course of the last year and because of this we don't want to squander the opportunity to enhance people's work and life balance.
