* Plenty of job security from being a key worker at the heart of our communities, where we always need great people behind the wheel.
* UK-wide opportunities whereby if you’re moving out of choice or circumstance, as we run bus companies across the UK, you can transfer to a new location.

* Career development including our Trade Up scheme for drivers who want to move into engineering, promotion opportunities to Driver Mentor, Regulator/Controller and Driving Instructor, and routes into management and leadership for those who want that.
* Secondment opportunities to work elsewhere in the business – either on big events like Silverstone and Cheltenham Festival, or into our Stagecoach wide head office support functions.
* An employee assistance programme to support health and wellbeing through a confidential service available 24 hours a day which provides specialist guidance and assistance on a range of personal and work-related issues, from dealing with stress and anxiety to managing financial, marital or legal issues.
* A great working environment with loads of opportunity to make new friends from a bunch of great workmates, managers who work hard to create great places to work, and employee networks building inclusive environments for women, veterans, carers, multicultural and LGBTQ+ colleagues.
The recruitment process is simple – you apply, we’ll then get you in for an interview and a bus drive, and that’s it!
There are a few of things we need from you:
* You need to have a PCV licence, and no more than 6 penalty points.
