Experienced Driver needs a job! can a PH'er help?
Discussion
Hiya guys and gals, I lost my job before Xmas and Ive been actively seeking a job since then looking at the job sites 3 times a day and visiting companies all to no avail yet with 4 interviews but didnt get any due to the overwhelming numbers of applicants, Ive been told between 200-3000!!!
Im looking for any job in South Wales or bristol area that involves driving, basic property maintainace etc as i have experience of both
Have a Class 2 licence but havent driven one yet but willing to! Also have a 17 seat minibus licence which I have a lot of experience of and also Luton box/panel vans of all shapes and sizes for many years. Licence is totally clean and im 26
A full CV is available on request.
Can A PH'er help with a job with their company they own/work for or have any contacts that could help?
Much Appreciated!
Kenneth

What about a coach company?
Mate of mine works for First Travel Group, based in Swansea but with other depots in the area. I'll see if i can find out about any vacancy's.
that would be good but i only have a D1 17 seat minibus category not the full size coach one so there would have to be training as well! there isnt many first buses around here actually, only veolia, newport transport and stagecoach. but see what ur mate says!Mate of mine works for First Travel Group, based in Swansea but with other depots in the area.

Have you tried http://www.driverhire.co.uk/ might be worth a try?
There is an office near the magic roundabout, Cardiff.

Try http://www.t4recruitment.com they seem to have a few driver jobs showing on their website.
Ive already done the set up my own business thing with a franchise with business post and did it for 2-3 years but I rather be a employee now and not worry bout the tax man demands and papers and sortin the insurance and paying for the van to be repaired. etc etc
It was enjoyable but I was working all the hours god sent and if i wanted time off i had to pay for a cover driver so in the 2-3 years i only took 2 weeks off which is ridiculous really isnt it!
