Bus Driver - Council Headquaters

We’re looking for a friendly, reliable, and safety‑focused driver to help us deliver essential transport services for our communities. This is a varied and rewarding role where no two days are the same. You’ll be driving a modern and diverse fleet of vehicles, from 16‑seat minibuses to 72‑seat coaches, providing local bus services, school transport, and supporting school excursions across the region.

As the face of our organisation on the road, you’ll play an important part in ensuring passengers enjoy a safe, comfortable, and positive journey. Whether you’re helping pupils get to and from school, supporting special trips and excursions, or providing vital links for residents and visitors, your contribution will make a real difference every day.
We offer full training, ongoing support, and opportunities to develop your skills within a friendly and professional team. If you enjoy working with people, take pride in delivering excellent service, and thrive in a role with variety and responsibility, we’d love to hear from you.

Training can be offered to achieve category D Licence at a future date.
