Job Description:
We are recruiting for a Talent Pool of qualified Train Drivers who want to deliver a high-quality rail service across the GWR network.
Our Qualified Train Drivers play a crucial role in setting a new standard for rail, focused on creating a relaxed, fast, efficient, and fun experience for our passengers. In addition, our Drivers provide technical and operational expertise within our teams, delivering the highest standard of service.
We pride ourselves on both safety and customer service and are looking for people with excellent safety-critical records who enjoy being part of a team.
About You
The role requires exceptional focus and attention to detail. Your ability to follow protocols and make critical decisions will be second to none. If you enjoy working with a broader team, have a passion for delivering great customer service, and your safety-critical history is of a high standard, we would love to hear from you.
Apply now for a chance to become one of our Qualified Drivers, with a starting salary of £54,111 for the first 12 months, rising to £60,124.
Additional Information:
Safety and our passengers are at the heart of everything we do at GWR. The application process involves an online Situational Judgement exercise, a review of the RSSB B1 Transfer of Safety Critical Information history, and a selection interview to assess key role requirements.
Before applying, consider:
* Living within 60 minutes commuting distance of the depot is essential for safety reasons. You must be able to arrive for various shifts, including weekends and nights, with varying start and finish times.
We offer a competitive pension scheme, free rail travel for you and your family across the GWR network, a company-sponsored healthcare plan, and more through our colleague benefit scheme.
This opportunity is for qualified drivers to join our Talent Pool for 2022/2023 and beyond. Successful applicants will be placed in the Talent Pool pending available vacancies, in line with our Recruitment Policy.
