ALSA bus (under CONDA colours) from SJPdP to Roncesvalles. The bus runs in summer and on reduced schedules during shoulder seasons. You likely won't find a schedule more than a month in advance of service starting in the spring. http://www.conda.es/

Another option might Express Bourricot. https://www.expressbourricot.com/persons-transport/

The ALSA bus runs between 0 and 4 times daily during the year depending on the season. It doesn't run during the winter. There is a bus that runs to Pamplona all year from the French/ Spanish border at Arneguy, a bit on the Spanish side, but only twice a week. It may not stop at Roncevalles but if you ask the driver it may. The bus stop is an easy walk of a couple hours from SJPDP. I lost the actual link you would want but the bus line is PLM.

Look up the web site for Express Bourricot.
When I did a similar thing in 2011 ,Caroline took me from St Jean to Pamplona with 2 Australians.
Whatever the cost is Caroline will divide it between the number of passengers.
I hope that she is still running this superb service.. I can't praise her enough.

Christine of Express Bourricot drove me from Biarritz Airport to Roncesvalles (after dropping a few people off at SJPP) so I could begin my Camino there -- for about the same reason you want to do this. I'd done the Napoleon route previously, and made a calculation that I wasn't getting any younger .... and didn't want my first day on the Camino to be my last. It's a beautiful walk and a wonderful experience, but as we all know, difficult. EB is just such a great service, they deserve all the praise they get.
