Join Arriva as a Bus Driver
At Arriva, our Bus Drivers are at the heart of the communities we serve. Whether it’s getting children to school, commuters to work, or the public to events or shopping – we connect our customers to the people and places that matter to them.
We are one team with a shared passion for providing excellent customer service and playing a vital part in our local communities. Working as a Bus Driver, you will be part of one big team. We pride ourselves on teamwork and supporting each other as well as our customers.
We are currently recruiting for both Trainee and Experienced Bus Drivers at our Birkenhead depot.
Don’t worry if you’ve never driven a bus before – we will provide all the training you need, and you’ll earn as you learn! The hourly rate during training will be £14.00, increasing to £17.00 after 12 months (Effective 01/05/2024).
For experienced Bus or PCV Drivers, we offer a starting hourly rate of £17.00 (effective 01/05/2024).
We’re offering full-time opportunities with the potential for overtime if you wish to take additional hours. You will be supplied with a uniform, training, and development opportunities to grow your experience and career within the company.
All successful candidates will attend an induction at a local depot, which includes vehicle familiarisation, route learning, ticket machines, customer care, policies, and procedures. If you don’t already hold your PCV licence, you will attend our Arriva Training School for full CPC training to prepare you for your new role as an Arriva Bus Driver.
You need to be over 18, with at least 6 months of driving experience and no more than 6 points on your licence. The role is shift-based, including evenings and weekends. If you’re passionate about customer service, enjoy dealing with the public, and want to support your local communities, submit your application now. Our Recruitment Team will be in touch to discuss your application.
