Testimonials
“I like helping people, especially elderly people. I like the weekly pay, it’s easier to balance my bills, rather than it all coming in at once. I get on with everyone here too. Every day’s different, there’s always something to look forward to.”
“I love meeting people and helping people in my community, I get so many smiles. You have to be a people person to be a bus driver. I would recommend becoming a bus driver to anyone. I’m happy, and the money is good too.”
'Driving is easy. I love driving and talking to my passengers, and shifts work well for me. I work the same hours every day which suits me. Plus this is the most I’ve earned, the salary is good.'
Making you feel welcome right from the start
Our award winning Garage Life experience is for people like you, our new drivers, and takes place in the business unit where you will work at the end of your training. You will be introduced to life as a bus driver, get to meet your local team and gain a good understanding of what is expected of you before you begin your formal training. This programme will typically take 3-4 weeks and will be completed whilst you wait for your licence to be issued.
We support career development at every level
We may be red, but we’re committed to green
If you’re passionate about improving the environment we live in, then RATP Dev Transit London is the right choice for you. We are committed to reducing the impact our operations have on the environment by actively pursuing greener public transport solutions. Currently, we have the third greatest proportion of electric buses in our fleet, with over 34% of our in-service fleet being fully electric. We are working towards a fully electric fleet by 2030. Our colleagues are also proud to be contributing to a cleaner London. As one of our valued drivers said, “I really love driving the electric buses. They are smooth, they are quiet, and I really love the idea of knowing that while I'm driving, there are no emissions. I am grateful that that’s been taken care of while I’m moving around London all day.”
