On-Call Critical Medical Transport 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.

This is not routine driving. It is precision service work performed alongside clinical teams who rely on your reliability, composure, and clear communication.

What You’ll Do

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 escalate issues through established channels.

Maintain a professional, composed approach in time-sensitive and clinically sensitive environments.

On-Call Commitment

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.
