PCV Driver in Bridgwater, Somerset

on 28 June 2023

Long hours, unpredictable shifts pattern.

SPS served a purpose, however it left me exhausted and drained. With long hours (14hr shifts), short turnarounds between shifts = little sleep.For a driving role, this is bad news.I sadly became quite unwell owing to lack of sleep, mental health declined and it became impossible for me to continue - it was unsustainable.

Great place to work

I am a current employee of Somerset passenger solutions. This is the first job where I have genuinely felt valued. Management are helpful, caring and all have open door policy's which makes it so much easier to express concerns, ask questions and even just go in for a chat.The benefits are great, my favourite being the discounted train tickets (you can get to London for just £6!)

Just apply!

SPS is a great place to work, fantastic pay especially for bus driving. Great team with tonnes of down time. And plenty of opportunities for progression.Plus after 6 months you get the First bus benefits of free bus travel and heavily discounted rail travel (currently £6 to get to London) Very flexible work to fit family commitments and the staff support network is top level 👌🏼

Friendly and rewarding

Working for SPS is a challenging and rewarding experience. Being a driver is much easier than standard service work but start times take a bit of getting used to. Being part of the first nuclear new build project in a generation is fast-paced and unique. The culture and atmosphere is friendly and welcoming and there are plenty of opportunities for internal development.
