Bus Depot Service Assistant (Cleaning & Refuelling)

Job at Stagecoach Group in Worthing, West Sussex

Your Opportunity to Drive Operational Excellence at Stagecoach Worthing

Are you seeking a hands-on role where your dedication to detail makes a tangible difference every day? Stagecoach is actively recruiting for a Bus Depot Service Assistant at their Worthing depot. This is a critical behind-the-scenes position, integral to ensuring the reliability and safety of our extensive bus fleet, and by extension, the communities we serve.

Key Advantages for Aspiring Candidates:

  • Comprehensive Training & Development: Stagecoach provides full training covering all essential areas, including health and safety protocols, equipment operation, and industry-leading cleaning standards. This commitment to training means that while a PCV license is preferable, a full UK driving license is the essential requirement, and you'll be equipped with all the necessary skills.
  • Competitive Remuneration & Benefits: The role offers a salary of circa £29,100 per annum, along with opportunities for overtime. Beyond the competitive pay, you'll benefit from a robust package including a pension scheme, 20 days of holiday plus bank holidays, complimentary travel for yourself and a companion, and access to a wide array of employee discounts.
  • Career Progression Pathways: This role is not just a job; it's a stepping stone. Stagecoach fosters a culture of internal growth, with numerous examples of colleagues progressing into engineering, driving, and management positions. This demonstrates a clear commitment to nurturing talent from within.
  • Supportive & Inclusive Environment: Stagecoach is deeply committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive workplace. You'll be part of a supportive team and have access to valuable resources, including employee networks, wellbeing support, and a 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme for you and your family.

Key Considerations for Your Career Path:

  • Shift Pattern: This role operates on a rolling shift pattern, working five days in seven, with hours from 16:30 to 01:00. Candidates should assess if this shift structure aligns with their personal commitments and lifestyle preferences.
  • Physical Demands: The position is inherently hands-on and involves tasks such as fueling, cleaning (including under-chassis washes), and vehicle movement. A degree of physical fitness and a willingness to undertake manual work are essential.
  • Attention to Detail: The core of this role lies in maintaining high standards of cleanliness and safety for the fleet. A keen eye for detail and a genuine pride in a job well done are paramount.
  • Essential Driving Requirement: A full UK driving licence is a mandatory requirement for this position. While a PCV licence is a plus, the ability to drive legally in the UK is non-negotiable.

If you are looking for a role where you can contribute meaningfully to the smooth operation of a vital public service, take pride in your work, and grow your career within a supportive organisation, then this opportunity at Stagecoach Worthing warrants your serious consideration. It's a chance to be an essential part of a team that keeps communities connected.
