Try below code hope its help to you

Your List ->

List<String> data = [
    "Counter No 1",
    "Counter No 2",
    "Counter No 3",
    "Counter No 4",
  ];

Your Widget->

SingleChildScrollView(
     child: Column(
          children: [
            // your other widget
            buildSearch(), 
            ExpansionTile(
              leading: Icon(
                Icons.info_rounded,
              ),
              title: Text(
                "Select Staff",
              ),
              children: [
                ListView.builder(
                  shrinkWrap: true,
                  itemCount: data.length,
                  itemBuilder: (context, index) {
                    return ListTile(
                      title: Text(data[index]),
                      subtitle: Text('Your Data'),
                    );
                  },
                ),
              ],
            ),
          ],
        ),
       ),
