“It’s the variety of meeting different people and you do get to touch on their lives” – Tony, UGO Bus Driver

UGO Bus delivers tailored, accessible transport for businesses, residents, and public-sector organisations across Essex. As part of Essex County Council we’re proud to provide a friendly, reliable and community‑focused service using our modern fleet of minibuses.

We are now looking for dedicated and thoughtful individuals to join our team as UGO Bus Drivers.

Please note this is a part time position working 28 hours per week.

Why You’ll Love Working With Us

Our drivers make a real difference every day. You’ll be supporting a diverse range of passengers - from students and young people to older adults and individuals with disabilities or special educational needs. Compassion, professionalism, and a positive outlook are at the heart of the role.

If you want to know more, watch our video to see what makes UGO Bus more than just a journey: UGO Bus - more than just a journey

Shift Pattern

All UGO Bus drivers work to a split‑shift pattern, so flexibility and an understanding of this schedule is crucial.

A typical split shift might include:

  • Morning: 7.30am – 10.00am
  • Afternoon: 2.30pm – 5.00pm

This structure supports the needs of our passengers throughout the day. Please note: part‑time and term‑time salaries are pro rata.

What We’re Looking For

  • Hold a current driving licence with D1 entitlement is essential - this is an essential requirement for driving our accessible minibuses and forms a core part of your suitability for the position.
  • Have experience working with customers from a wide range of backgrounds and needs
  • Understand the importance of flexibility and can adapt to shifting demands
  • Stay calm and professional under pressure
  • Are confident using a smartphone or tablet
  • Have strong communication and interpersonal skills in customer‑facing environments

If successful, you’ll complete an enhanced DBS check, pass an ECC minibus driver assessment, and attend mandatory training - including MiDAS and First Aid.
