Manager of Community Business Development

Mobility Independence Is For Everyone

Are you a Baltimore-based advocate committed to improving access to transportation for people with disabilities and older adults in the Baltimore region? If so, would you be interested in a position with UZURV dedicated to expanding use of adaptive transportation through UZURV to solve these challenges?

This is a role in our business development team. It's a combination of community advocacy, local policy, and local business development with a growing company that's on a mission to create accessible communities.

About UZURV

We believe mobility independence is for everyone. UZURV is a high growth national assisted community mobility and technology business. We've been very successful growing the business with public transit agencies to improve ADA paratransit service across the country. Our first program was here in Richmond with GRTC and began in 2017, but we've grown and grown, now providing millions and millions of trips a year in 18+ states and working with 10 of the largest 20 public transit agencies in the country by their ADA paratransit ride volume.

It's not by accident. We've grown, because of the quality of our service. UZURV's riders and drivers rate the company extremely highly in satisfaction. We also save our clients often 30-50% on the cost of transportation for people with disabilities and older adults who need assistance.
