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 which is focused on creating a relaxed, fast, efficient, and fun experience for our passengers. In addition to this, our Drivers also provide the 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, then we would love to hear from you.
Apply now, to be in with a chance of becoming 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 in 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 which measures the key requirements of the role.
There are a few essentials to consider before applying:
* Do you live within 60 minutes commuting distance of the depot? For safety reasons, you must live within this maximum commuting time and 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 across the GWR network for you and your family, a company-sponsored healthcare plan, and much more through our colleague benefit scheme.
We have opportunities for Qualified Drivers to join our Talent Pool for 2022/2023 and later. If your application is successful, you will be placed in a Talent Pool pending available vacancies in 2022/23 and beyond, in line with our Recruitment Policy.
We all belong at GWR. This is our vision for providing an inclusive environment for all colleagues, ensuring all candidates have an equal opportunity to access meaningful employment.
We value diversity in age, gender, LGBTQIA, ethnicity, religion, and disability. We maintain zero tolerance towards prejudice against colleagues, customers, and future talent.
We celebrate diversity of thought, progressive working methods, and support all colleagues to grow and thrive.
We review all roles and descriptions for accessibility and support flexible working options where possible.
