Meet Tom and Jake, Flixbus Newport Coach Drivers

Jake
Coach Driver
Newport Transport
“The four on, two off pattern gives you real balance — you know you’ve got time to recharge. What stood out to me is the team here; it’s tight-knit and supportive. With the training, you’re not pushed into it — you’re shown things first until you’re confident.”

Stable Shift Pattern

You’ll work a consistent 4 on / 2 off pattern. Rota changes happen twice per year, with only small tweaks in between when routes change.

Proper Coach Driving

This is intercity coach work, focused on routes including Gatwick Airport, London and Swansea. Expect longer runs and a different pace to local bus driving.

Your Own Coach

While you’re out on the road, the coach feels like yours. You’ll do a simple end-of-trip tidy, so the coach is ready for the next passengers.

Supportive Team

Join a tight, supportive team where people look out for each other. There’s a driver WhatsApp/forum to share updates, road info, and help each other day-to-day.

Great Pay Rates

Earn £15.06/hr (Mon–Fri) and £18.36/hr (Sat–Sun). You’re paid sign-on to sign-off, with paid breaks (no break deductions).

Deserved Time Off

You’ll receive 20 days pro rata plus bank holidays. After 5 years’ service, you get an extra week of annual leave. You also get a paid day off for your birthday.
