At Arriva, our Bus Drivers are at the heart of the communities we serve. Whether it’s getting children to school or commuters to work. You’ll connect our customers to what matters to them. Providing excellent customer service and making a real difference in communities. We’re one team, moving forwards together to make travelling by bus the best choice for our customers.
Our Thurmaston depot provides a bus service across Leicestershire and the surrounding areas, with a large modern fleet that is soon to include electric vehicles. The depot is easy to commute to from across Leicestershire; we even operate an employee bus and shuttle service to get you to and from the depot.
You’ll have a PCV licence, but don’t worry if you’ve never driven a bus before. We’ll provide all the training you need to get up to speed. For experienced PCV Drivers we offer an hourly rate of £13.70. We’re offering full-time opportunities with potential for overtime if you’d like to take additional hours.
We’re proud of our customer service and how we support our community. You’ll get to know familiar faces and build relationships with your customers. Brightening their day as they pop to shops or commute to work.
About you:
You’ll be over 18 with at least 6 months driving experience with no more than 6 points on your licence and have a PCV licence. If you don’t already have you licence we are also recruiting for Trainees so your application will still be considered. So, if you’re passionate about great customer service and want to help support your local communities then we’d love to hear from you. The role will be shift-based, so you’ll need to be prepared to work early, evenings and weekends. Next stop, Arriva.
