- Willingness to be able to conduct multi-day tours where you will be provided with overnight accommodation paid for by the company.
- Be able to work as part of a team and liaise with the support staff when needed.
- To be able to get to our yard in the Leith area of Edinburgh in adequate time in order for you to be able to do your daily bus checks before heading to our departure point.

What we can do for you:

- Provide fully paid driver training.
- Annual OTE earnings of OTE £35000-£40000 per annum
- Fully Paid holidays that are accrued as you work.
- ‘Smart Pension’ enrolment.
- Incremental loyalty bonus that rises year on year.
- Meal allowance for evening meals on multi-day tour.
- Branded uniform provided.
- Safe parking onsite at our yard.

Successful applicants will be offered a role and will be offered a probationary contract. Providing you meet the necessary standards and requirements needed that suit you and the company, you will move on to a contract where you are paid guaranteed hours as a minimum. During the high season the minimum is 40 hours you will be expected to work per week paid at our generous hourly rate which equates to 3 or 4 days’ work depending on the tours you have been assigned. Our tours and rotas are designed to ensure that you meet the necessary breaks and rest periods needed.

So, if you think you have what it takes to be a successful in your role then The Hairy Coo could be for you. Please send us your CV or call 0131 212 5026 for more info.
