Hastings, United Kingdom Stagecoach Full time

**Salary**

£14.87 per hour (£30,156 gross per annum) after a qualifying period of 6 months

Love driving? Yes? Then that’s a good start

But, there’s much more to being a bus driver with Stagecoach than getting your passengers from A to B.

You’ll be part of the lifeblood of the local community - making sure Sarah gets to her university lectures on time. You’ll say hello to James on his way to hospital to see his new baby boy. You’ll help Vikram to get to his first day at his new job.

You’ll be the face of our business - playing an incredibly important role each and every day, safely and comfortably transporting our fantastic customers to work, to the High Street, to our cities, towns and villages, to healthcare and community services, to days away and nights out.

You’ll know some of them by name, and some of them will know you on first name terms too

And where they don’t, we're relying on you to give them a fantastic journey to remember, with your focus on all things customer. You’ll also need to operate the bus safely, of course

If that’s not enough, you’ll be a part of an incredible family. We employ over 180 driving colleagues in Hastings alone, and 25,000 across the UK. You'll be a part of one of the UK’s greatest business stories, driving us forward (sorry about the pun) to even bigger success.

Aside from the reward of delivering an incredible experience to our customers, there’s plenty more we can offer:

- **Job Security**- we’ve been going since 1980, we turn-over £1.3bn per year, and we are not hanging our boots up anytime soon
- **A great regular income**- paid weekly so it’s never too long between pay cheques (not that we pay by cheque - straight into your account every Thursday)
- **Free Travel**- for you and a companion on our buses. That means that on your days off you can head out shopping without worrying about parking the car, or spend a day in the city without paying a fortune in petrol
- **A brilliant working environment**- your boss isn’t stood over you. You’re out and about, trusted to look after our customers and enjoy yourself at the same time. It’s just like being your own boss in fact
- **Promotions**- want to fly up the ladder? Great We’ve got plenty of colleagues who started as a driver and are now Controllers, Inspectors, Classroom Trainers, Driving Instructors and Managers in our business. Likewise, if you want to focus on your career driving a bus, that’s fine by us.
- **UK wide opportunities**- fancy a move to Devon in a few years but not sure how you’d get a job there? Other half is keen to live in Yorkshire? You decide to go to university in London and want to keep working? We run buses across the UK, so if you do move from East Sussex, rest assured you’ll be OK for employment.

There's just a couple of things that we need from you:
1 - A full, valid car licence, with no more than 6 current penalty points, and no driving bans within the last 5 years.

2 - A desire to deliver a great service for our customers.

And that’s it.....we'll provide thorough training for everything else you need to know
