  • Hands-on and proactive, preferring to be in the field, learning the service firsthand, and solving problems where they happen.
  • Tactical and strategic, able to problem-solve issues as they come up but also think long term about solutions to mitigate these occurrences.
  • Mission driven, an individual who understands the value of student transportation in shaping people's education and their life trajectory
  • Based in the Appleton area, ready to be onsite 4-5 days a week.
