Due to the nature of the work undertaken in the Passenger Travel Team, work priorities can change on a daily basis, and it is therefore essential you are able to deal with a conflicting workload. For example, you may be in the middle of completing a task, and the team receives a call to advise a vehicle with children on board has broken down. When this happens, it is likely that everyone will need to be involved in dealing with this situation, as directed, until it is resolved.
