Our Fleet Services and Vehicle Logistics team is responsible for ensuring all of EMAS's life-saving vehicles and equipment are safe, efficient, and effective.
EMAS has a fleet of over 700 vehicles, including emergency ambulances, fast response cars, specialised and driver training vehicles, and urgent care and patient transport vehicles.
The team also manages the supply of life-saving equipment to our frontline crews. This includes performing vital checks of medical equipment on board vehicles (such as defibrillators).
Their work ensures that our crews and drivers can reach patients quickly and safely, and can use essential life-saving equipment while on scene. They are amazing at what they do - and they have the awards to prove it.
"Before I came to EMAS, I worked in a further education college. I’ve always wanted to feel like I’m making a contribution. At the college I was helping shape the futures of students and here I support EMAS to care for patients.The best part of my job is the team. They are very dedicated. There’s also great job satisfaction - although we don’t treat patients on the frontline, we are part of the wider EMAS team that helps make that happen. We make sure that frontline crews have everything they need to save lives."
Our electric fleet is leading the way
EMAS has been adding electric vehicles (EVs) to our fleet since 2017. We're leading the way towards a greener NHS and reducing emissions in our communities.

There are many reasons I like working for EMAS. I get a lot of job satisfaction - my team and I help save lives. We maintain vehicles and equipment on the vehicles to a high standard. We work with so many nice and different people, and everyone is genuinely lovely."
“I really like working for EMAS as you know that you’re putting vehicles on the road so they can be used to respond to patients.
It’s really nice to get the positive feedback from colleagues and the public.”
