London, Greater London, United Kingdom Transport UK London Full time
How would you like to earn nearly GBP50k per year and only work for an average of three and a half days a week?


We are looking for an innovative, self-starting individual who wants to work for one of the fastest growing, dynamic businesses in the London bus industry.

You don't need to have bus experience - if you have worked in the transportation sector, be it car van truck or train then we would like to speak to you If this is you, then why not apply to come and join us at Transport UK London Bus.

We are looking to recruit PSV/HGV Technician to join our Engineering team based at Walworth depot, working a shift pattern of 4 days/nights on and 4 days/nights off, yes that means you will have half of the year to yourself unless you chose to work voluntary overtime to further boost the attractive wages.


Transport UK London Bus operates bus services across London on behalf of TFL, plus rail replacement and event services across the UK.

We operate 11% of the London's bus network, running over 900 modern high-tech vehicles and employing around 3,500 employees across six depots in Central, South and West London.

We carry over 150 million customers a year on TfL's contracted bus network - and are the fastest growing operator in the capital.

About the job

You'll spend most of your time:
Inspecting, repairing and maintaining our buses.
Investigating and diagnosing any mechanical and electronic faults.
Recording those faults, and the work we've done to fix them, using a tablet.
Following safety instructions and reporting any issues.

About you

You'll need to:
Work 12hr shifts with four days/nights on and four days/nights off.

Have at least an NVQ level 2 qualification for maintenance and repair of public service vehicles or heavy goods vehicles (or an equivalent international qualification).

OR at least five years' experience repairing and maintaining public service or heavy goods vehicles which you will need to evidence.

We'll need to see evidence of your qualification from the awarding body. If you don't have an NVQ we'll need you to pass the IRTEC Service Maintenance Technician exam during your six-month probation which we will fully support and fund to ensure your development
Oh, and it's not essential, but it'd be great if you also have a PCV licence. Don't worry if you don't as we would also love to teach you to drive our buses.

As well as all that, you'll need to:
Have a good standard of Maths and English.
Be able to read and understand instructions and service manuals.
Know how to use fleet management technical computer systems.
Be good in a team - whether that's working with your direct colleagues or beyond.

Be able to meet deadlines and work flexibly when we need you to (for instance, we might ask you to work from a different depot or take a different shift).

Be happy to take any training the service manager asks you to.
Be able to work well using your own initiative.
Be safety conscious in everything you do.

What you'll get

Free travel on all TfL routes for you and a friend or family member (once you've worked with us for three months)
Free online and face-to-face counselling, legal advice and more through our employee assistance programme

Our contributory pension scheme - you put in 5% of your salary each month and we'll add 3% on top.

Our pensions also include a death-in-service benefit which pays out a tax-free lump sum if you die while you're employed by us
Life insurance (if you sign up to the pension scheme)
Employee benefits from shops and retailers - including Apple, Adidas, Nike, Vue, Odeon, Sainsbury's, Asda, Morrisons and more

Everybody's welcome
