Dear whom ever, I live in the Bristol area and was wanting to know if the company offers trainee train driver courses?

    Good morning, James, thank you for your question!
    The only training/development we offer for Trainee train drivers, are for those who have been successful in their interview, assessments and relevant checks including a specific occupational health criteria's. We would advise you to apply for a trainee driver role when we next advertise. We recently did advertise for Bristol Parkway but that is now closed. You would be best registering for job alerts in our recruitment system, so the system notifies you when we next have an open advert for trainee driver roles in the areas you are interested in. All trainee drivers are required to live within 60 mins or less from the depot they apply for. Good luck!
