Join our team where we facilitate the safe road crossing of children and adults within East Riding of Yorkshire.

This is a rewarding and respected role within the community that is appreciated by parents, children, and road users. The weekly hours make this an attractive opportunity for people who would like a job that can fit in around other commitments.

The crossing times are 08:00 - 08:45 and 15:00 - 15:45, Monday to Friday, during term time.

Duties include:

• Help pedestrians cross the road safely on school routes.
• Provide a safe walking environment that encourages children to walk to school.
