Job Description

Are you looking for a full-time, permanent Bus Driver role where you're treated as an individual, not just a number? In a bus company with a modern fleet? Paid breaks? Free on-site parking? 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 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).
  • £15.80 per hour Monday to Saturday
  • £19.00 per hour if you choose to work on Sundays or Bank Holidays (Worthing or Brighton)
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
