Type in Gregory Close or Lefroy Avenue in your navigation system. It's free parking there. Will then be a 15min walk to the training centre.

Yes 74,582 top. That will be for tier 1 depots ie Waterloo & Wimbledon. Tier 2 depots will be slightly less. Had to edit after checking the deal

Well the third year of the deal was 65k basic (minus the retention and regional allowances). The fourth year of the deal was either a 3.08% increase bringing it to 67k basic or rpi whichever is the greater. So the figure of 76k is about right including the allowances.

I had my interview with SE in 2016 so not sure I can be much help but if they haven't changed it much then this info could help you and others. There was a rating system for the interview and you would be marked from 1-4 on each question. 1. Poor fit - fails to give evidence against criteria...

Victoria does have free parking for drivers at pugs hole.

@TTDARL they are qualified drivers that moved over. Maybe another new starter on the forum can confirm?

@TTDARL, I'm sure they wouldn't lie about it. This is what they have told me. @choochoochoo because of the pandemic they haven't done anything and have been at home.

I don't work for them but a few colleagues have recently went over. No London allowance for new starters and rdw is paid at £125

Well said @Bellbell

Different depots have different links so different rest day patterns. It's a 4 day week 35hrs, some links may have a true 4.

Rdw is paid at x1.25 on weekdays and x1.5 on weekends. Fully guarded work no DOO. At the moment drivers don't do anything with the doors but with the agreement it will be DOGC (driver open guard close). I don't have information regarding Yeovil and Feltham isn't open yet.

There was a driver at my old depot who was in his first year and got a job with TPE.

@ComUtoR, i wish it were so. Add in the £295 we pay in for pension at ARL.

Salary at SE 54,575 plus London weighting (roughly 1,700 a month). Salary at ARL 64,435. The difference in payslips £175.

Yes newly qualified drivers sign Vic-Canterbury West/Vic-Faversham. You would think so. Not sure if I'm suppose to put exact figures but the difference in pay between SE and ARL is about £175. Is that worth the extra intensity? I don't know that's a different argument lol. SE ain't that bad...

Well yes since they lost their taxi agreement and got all the added metro stuff a lot of drivers did leave but still work content wasn't that bad. Unfortunately for me i joined ARL (better pay) and saw their jobs after lol. Not a true 4 day week, limited routes (like doing Vic-Orpys most of...

SE isn't all that bad.....in fact Vic is pretty decent! The diagrams are getting worse though. If there were any gaps inbetween jobs they've now thrown in as many shunts and AP/DP as they could. What Metal_gee_man wrote is spot on though. I would have moved Ashford but SE don't offer residential...

SE Victoria also sign Ashford-Canterbury West.

A qulified driver can apply for any qualified driver position without having to take any extra tests.

Vic link 2 do sign to Faversham as I'm in that link. Apart from that JameyJames is correct.
