Job description

Are you looking for a full-time, permanent Bus Driver role

• Where set rolling rotas offer guaranteed hours and predictability?
• 4 day working week (currently no Sundays and Bank Holidays)?

Compass Travel is an independent bus operator with a friendly, down-to-earth team who recognise good work and have a genuine open-door policy. We're smaller than many of the big operators which means our Drivers get to know the people they work with.

What you will benefit from:

• Average minimum 40 hours per week
• Breaks paid in full
• Overtime opportunities
• Free on-site parking
• Up to £70 per month driving bonus (conditions apply)
• One discretionary paid CPC training module each year (conditions apply and catch-up modules excluded)
• Career progression opportunities
• Pension
• Uniform
• Free teas and coffees at the depot
• The choice to join a benefit scheme for £1.25 per week which gives access to health and welfare benefits (optional)
• After 2 weeks of employment, the opportunity to apply for discretionary, non-contractual family travel passes (you, your live-in partner/spouse and up to 5 child passes up to the age of 19 across participating bus companies).
• £17.00 per hour Monday to Saturday

What you'll need:

• Valid Category D driving licence
• Valid Driver CPC card
• A reliable approach
• A professional, customer-focused attitude
• A strong commitment to safety
• The ability to commute to and from our depot
