Dallas TX - Transportation Specialist

Transportation Specialist

Every transport at NORA supports a life-saving transplant.

As a Transportation Specialist, you play a critical role in a coordinated medical logistics chain where timing, safety, professionalism, and sound judgment can directly impact patient outcomes. This role requires disciplined execution, operational awareness, and the ability to remain calm and focused in time-sensitive situations without compromising safety or protocol.

It is precision service work performed alongside clinical teams who rely on your reliability, composure, and clear communication.

• Transport surgical teams, organs, tissues, and critical medical supplies safely and efficiently.
• Operate in both emergency and non-emergency situations, using sound judgment while maintaining strict adherence to safety protocols.
• Communicate clearly and proactively with dispatch teams and clinical partners.
• Monitor for potential delays, safety concerns, or process gaps and elevate issues through established channels.
• Maintain a professional, composed approach in time-sensitive and clinically sensitive environments.

This is a true on-call position. During scheduled on-call periods, you must remain reachable and prepared to respond when dispatched. When you are not actively deployed, you are free to use your time as you choose.

Dispatch activity can vary, and weekly hours are not guaranteed.

• Strict adherence to established procedures and protocols
• Sensitivity and professionalism in clinically and emotionally significant environments

This responsibility applies only to designated NORA service areas.

• Calm, disciplined decision-making in time-sensitive situations
• Safety-first vehicle operation - urgency never takes priority over established protocols
• Clear, concise communication with dispatch and clinical partners
• Operational awareness to identify and elevate safety, timing, or protocol concerns
• Professional composure in clinically and emotionally sensitive environments
• Commitment to reliability - understanding that every transport plays a role in the transplant process

• Minimum 5 years of emergency vehicle operation experience; red lights and sirens experience preferred
• Background in law enforcement, fire service, or career EMS preferred
• Valid driver's license with a clean driving history
• Must be 25 years of age or older
• Ability to safely operate a stretcher with up to 200 pounds of patient weight
