What does it mean to drive for Go-Ahead?

You’re joining thousands of colleagues across the UK who are connecting their local communities. As a bus driver, you’re the face of our business to all our new and existing passengers, providing an essential service to help keep the community moving. Get equipped with the skills to drive a bus, support people with their journey needs, join a supportive team with likeminded colleagues and enjoy that every day is different.

We want more women in bus, and that means creating a welcoming and inclusive workplace. Go-Ahead is committed to investing £8m in upgrading facilities across the group to create a better and more inclusive working environment for all colleagues. You’ll also get a mentor to support you as you enter into your new career.

At Go-Ahead, we firmly believe that diversity drives innovation and success, it enriches our workforce and also paves the way for a more sustainable and inclusive future. Our Go-Ahead Women network, started in 2023, is for all women across our businesses and includes bus drivers, supervisors, engineers, apprentices, graduates and office-based colleagues. It is a really rich network of women who are already working for Go-Ahead and provides a genuine platform for their voices to be heard.

From Day 1, you will be invited to join our Go-Ahead Women network where you too will have a say in what it is like to work at Go-Ahead as well as meeting lots of other women, many of whom will have been through a similar journey to the one that you're  about to embark on. We really want to raise the bar as an employer, be true to our word and remove barriers for women in the public transport industry.

Our commitments have been designed to make our women bus drivers feel comfortable and confident. We want you to succeed and to join our increasing number of women colleagues who are already a part of the Go-Ahead family.
