LATE SHIFT GSO VACANY
Gloucester Depot – Full Time, Shift
Are you hard working and looking for a great permanent and secure job locally? If so we’ve got a perfect opportunity to join our growing team.
What we’re looking for...
First and foremost, we’re looking for someone reliable and self-motivated who takes pride in their work. It’s a physically demanding role and you’ll need a strong work ethic. You’ll need to be team player who can also carry out tasks independently. Finally, a PSV driving license is essential.
Roles & Responsibility…
You’ll get involved with a variety of daily tasks such as cleaning our workshop facility, fuelling, washing & parking our vehicles on site and generally supporting our vehicle maintenance team. That could be just the start though. Depending on your abilities and experience, you could be asked to carry out handy-man jobs around site and basic vehicle maintenance tasks. It could even be the start of your journey to become a fully skilled vehicle mechanic.
What we can offer...
The rate of pay is between £15.58 basic (with enhanced overtime rates), and aside from the satisfaction of being a key worker in your community, there’s loads of other reasons for you to join the Stagecoach West team…
· Great benefits including a generous company pension scheme, 30 days holiday, free financial education and affordable loans, and finally a range of money-saving opportunities including discounts on holidays and retail, cinema outings, dental insurance, vehicle breakdown cover and hotels and attractions
· Free travel for you and a companion on our buses – so on your days off you can be off shopping without worrying about parking the car, or heading off for a day in the city or by the seaside without worrying about the cost of fuel or parking
· Training – don’t worry if you’ve not worked on our vehicles before (or indeed buses!) as we’ll train you on everything you need to know, and you’ll be supported by a great team doing a great job
· Plenty of job security from being a key worker at the heart of our communities, where we always need great people servicing our fleet of vehicles
· A safe environment – we provide boots, overalls and specialist equipment so no need to worry about being safe and protected, or having the right kit for the job
· UK-wide opportunities whereby if you’re moving out of choice or circumstance, as we run bus companies across the UK, you can transfer to a new location
· Career development – many of our skilled engineers started their journey with us in shunter or cleaner roles. We run specific training & development programmes to cater for this progression, if you’ve got the ambition
· Secondment opportunities to work elsewhere in the business – either on big events like Silverstone and Cheltenham Festival, or into our head office support functions
· An employee assistance programme to support health and wellbeing through a confidential service available 24 hours a day which provides specialist guidance and assistance on a range of personal and work-related issues, from dealing with stress and anxiety to managing financial, marital or legal issues. Face-to-face counselling sessions are also offered, alongside telephone and online support.
· A great working environment with loads of opportunity to make new friends from a bunch of great workmates, managers who work hard to create great places to work, and employee networks building inclusive environments for women, veterans, carers, multicultural and LGBTQ+ colleagues
