About Us
We run Share Bus – 'shared rental' road trips for backpackers – and Home on the Road, a campervan rental brand. Our travellers want freedom, adventure and social connection, in a way that is both affordable and easy to do.
For Share Bus we put together groups of backpackers and rent them vehicles, trailers, camping gear. We also provide support through a recommended itinerary with campsite and activity recommedations, a guidebbok and responsive customer service. They make their own choices and create their memories.
Home on the Road rents out both affordable and reliable basic campervans, with clever conversions and everything needed for a self-guided road trip.
We're looking for an Operations Coordinator to keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes.

* booking, vehicles management and CRM systems are up to date
* coordinators and workshop staff know what's happening
* issues are dealt with quickly and calmly

You'll work closely with the founder (Chief Operations & Strategy Officer), Workshop/Fleet Officer, Customer Service & Sales Officer, and our VA.
Key Responsibilities
* Coordinate all Share Bus trips: vehicles, gear, coordinators, documentation.

* Plan vehicle movements and relocations across cities.
* Review trip feedback and fleet status for recurring issues or improvements.
* Maintain documentation and scheduled information sent to customers, including email templates, pre-trip messages, and info packs, ensuring they're accurate and up to date.
* Lead operational response for incidents (breakdowns, trip issues) and log what happened.
* Coordinate new campervans conversions, trailer builds and compliance requirements with third party providers
* Other operational projects as directed and assisting other staff as required
