Coach Tour Driver

Coach Driver (UK Tours & Private Hire)

Full Time Permanent Wolverhampton

Typical annual earnings: £35,000 - £40,000 (depending on work undertaken)

Love touring? So do we.

Not every coach driving job is about school runs, rail replacement, football supporters or late-night party work.

At Coach Tours & Travel of Wolverhampton, we do things differently.

We’re looking for an experienced Coach Driver who enjoys touring, takes pride in delivering outstanding customer service and wants to become part of a friendly, professional team.

If you believe that being a great coach driver is about far more than simply driving a vehicle, we’d like to hear from you.

The work you’ll be doing

The majority of your work will involve:

• Multi-day UK coach tours.
• Day excursions.
• Quality private hire.
• Occasional European tours.

You’ll be driving customers who genuinely enjoy travelling and appreciate excellent service. Many travel with us year after year, and our drivers are a big part of the reason they return.

Unlike many operators, we don’t operate school contracts, football services or stag and hen party work. Instead, we focus on delivering quality coach travel that we’re proud to put our name to.

The kind of driver we’re looking for

Experience is important.

Attitude is essential.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Enjoys looking after people.
• Takes pride in providing exceptional customer service.
• Is calm, professional and adaptable.
• Is smart, courteous and well presented.
• Is reliable, trustworthy and punctual.
• Enjoys touring and meeting new people.
• Understands that every journey reflects on our company.
• Takes pride in keeping both themselves and their coach to a high standard.

If you’re the type of driver who still enjoys receiving compliments from passengers at the end of a tour, you’ll fit in well here.

Why drivers choose us

We’re a family-owned business, and we believe that’s reflected in the way we treat our people.

You’ll never be just another payroll number.

Our office team knows our drivers personally, understands the realities of touring and works hard to ensure every tour runs as smoothly as possible.

You’ll be driving modern Mercedes and Scania coaches that are maintained to a high standard, allowing you to concentrate on delivering a first-class experience for your passengers.

We offer:

• Permanent full-time employment.
• Typical annual earnings of £32,000-£38,000 depending on work undertaken.
• Weekly pay.
• Modern Mercedes and Scania coach fleet.
• Predominantly UK touring with occasional European tours.
• Varied work throughout the year.
