Minibus Drivers

Required Immediately

Embley operates regular School Bus routes mornings and afternoons during term time. Approximately 20 hours per week at 14.07 per hour with the possibility of additional hours.

We are looking for drivers to operate regular School Bus routes mornings and afternoons, both driving and taking responsibility for children in their care. The successful candidates will be required to hold a D1 category, preferably unendorsed, driving licence. D1 was automatically granted on most driving licences issued before 1997 but where it is not already held the school will fund the necessary training to allow a successful candidate to undertake the test. MIDAS training will also be given to successful applicants where required.

Minibus drivers are an important part of the school support team, and they must relate well with both pupils and adults. You will be flexible; work well under pressure and be approachable and friendly with all pupils, parents and staff.

Embley is a warm and welcoming independent day and boarding school for boys and girls aged 2-18. We place a strong focus on academic ambition and strive to produce resilient, creative and independent learners who are flexible and proactive, who can solve problems, make decisions, think critically and communicate ideas effectively. The extensive grounds provide a calm and beautiful space in which to work and enables pupils to learn, play, compete and achieve.

We are an equal opportunities employer and committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All appointments are subject to child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and enhanced DBS clearance.
