We have opened applications for the only train driver apprenticeship scheme in the UK.

Working with Aslef, the train drivers’ union, we recently advertised for three people to join a year-long training course to become a driver. During the programme, apprentices receive training in all aspects of being a train driver, as well as additional learning opportunities and shadowing staff across the organisation to get a full understanding of how the driver’s role fits within the business.

The scheme follows last year’s successful pilot which received over 1,200 applications. The upcoming apprenticeships will be based at Glasgow, Wolverhampton, and London Euston.
