It’s been a fairly disappointing spring in terms of weather but the garden still keeps growing. As always we are a wee bit behind everyone else. We have only just lost the daffodils and cherry blossoms.

⚡️🚌 Ember are hiring drivers in Inverness! 🚌 ⚡️

Inverness is Ember's fastest-growing Hub, and we're launching more new routes and increasing our frequency on others.

We've been in Inverness for a year, and we've been running across Scotland since 2020. Ember are growing fast, with the fleet expanding significantly every year, and we're here to stay.

If you’re keen to progress your career in intercity coach driving, and would like to drive our state of the art 2025 and 2026 plate electric coaches, then we'd love to hear from you.

If you'd like a casual chat with one of our existing drivers before applying formally, we can arrange that too.

With a local starting pay rate of £15.50 per hour and a guaranteed increase to at least £16.30 per hour once you've been with the team for a year, there are also regular opportunities for overtime.

We offer 40 guaranteed hours each week so that Ember's drivers know their established take home pay (even if they are scheduled for fewer hours), and we are also happy to adjust the guaranteed hours for any drivers who would like the confidence of guaranteed work alongside the flexibility of working part-time.

Ember offer flexible annual leave bookings - meaning that drivers can choose and request their own holidays, meaning flexibility for that all-important downtime.

Even if you’re not a driver but you know someone who might be interested, please tag them below.
