When someone dials 999, every second matters. Behind every ambulance response is a dedicated team working together to get help to patients as quickly and safely as possible. As a Dispatch Support Assistant, you could play a vital role in making that happen.
We are looking for motivated and resilient individuals to join our Emergency Operations Centre in Otterbourne, Hampshire; who are looking to commence on our 25th January 2027 training course, however a later course in March 2027 is also available.

Acting as a vital link between Emergency Call Takers, frontline ambulance crews and partner emergency services, you will help ensure patients receive the right response at the right time.
This is a fast-paced and rewarding role where no two days are the same. Supporting responses to emergencies and major incidents, you'll work as part of a dedicated team helping patients receive the care they need.
