Say hello to Julie, our dedicated Passenger Assistant and Cleaner
As a family-run business of over 20 years, we thought it was about time we introduced some of the SC Travel team!
Having been with us practically since the beginning, there’s no one better to kick off this #MeetTheTeam series than Julie, who recently celebrated her 21 year work anniversary here at SC Travel.
About Julie’s role
Julie splits her time at SC Travel between being a Passenger Assistant on our accessible school runs, and Cleaner for our fleet of vehicles. This variety is something which she really enjoys.
“I feel like I’m able to make an impact in both of my roles. The cleaning, for one, makes me proud and satisfied with maintaining the high quality of our vehicles.”
Something that’s really important for all of our passengers to experience is the feeling of being in good, safe hands when they travel with us – and having an expertly clean vehicle is definitely integral to that.
“In my other role as a Passenger Assistant, I love the fact that I’m able to make a difference and help the children we look after to be happy and comfortable when they go to school.
Not only do we help them get to school safely, but we also get to know them really well. Having the same group of kids each week is important to that – we’ve developed some really good relationships and that’s made a huge difference to their comfort and happiness when travelling with us.”
Q: What did you do before joining SC Travel?
A: I used to work as a Care Assistant before I met John and Susan Connolly, who at the time had not long started SC Travel, and offered me a role that would be able to better fit around my 2 years old daughter.
They were right, it was a much better fit working as a Passenger Assistant, working the hours that suited me and my work-life balance.
Q: Outside of work, what do you like getting up to?
A: I am very much family-oriented, and spend most of my free time with my grandchildren. Aside from them, I also like to see my friends and just relax when I can!
Q: What’s been one of your proudest moments in life?
A: Probably the fact that I’ve been at SC Travel so long. That stability has enabled me to almost be like a family friend to the company, and watch it grow and change over the years.
