Meet Our People

At First Bus we know how much our people enjoy working in their teams. While many of our people have been with us for a long time, and some have family members working here, we have colleagues who are just beginning their career with us. As we continue our transformation programme this is a rapidly expanding group, so we have a great blend of experience and new ideas. We’re a very inclusive team and we enjoy our work, wherever we are.

“I’ve been at First bus for over two years now – my dad has been a driver here for forty! I applied for our Step Up programme that prepares you for next steps from Driver, so I’m looking forward to finishing that – there are lots of opportunities here at First Bus if you decide to go for them. I love working with First Bus, it’s a great place to be.”

“I’ve been at First Bus for fifteen years – I’d worked on buses and on trucks before that. I haven’t looked back. I started as a Mechanical Engineer and progressed through Vehicle Examiner and Supervisor to Assistant Engineering Manager where I am now. It’s a fantastic company and we have great goals and ambitions for the future”.

Jorge, Engineering Apprentice
“It’s really worthwhile and rewarding. There’s a lot of variety, the people are really friendly, and the Supervisors are very interested in safety and that everyone is taken care of”.

Ike, Engineering Apprentice
“I’m a Mech/Elec apprentice. I’ve been here for two years now. I wasn’t happy with where I was and when the opportunity to join First Bus as an apprentice came up I knew it was right for me. It’s been really good. The people I’m working with have so much experience and they are always willing to share it. It makes the work environment really easy”.

Charlotte, Operations Graduate
“The support in First Bus is great. Everyone is really supportive of the graduates. They bring you into the business and direct you down the right path. They put people at the heart of the business and want to develop you. The sky’s the limit! “.
