Hello all

Do London northwestern ever advertise for qualified drivers?
Been looking for a while and never come across any vacancies, although I have seen adverts for trainees?

Yes. Not sure on the area you're looking for but at my depot we have quite a few qualified drivers on traction and route learning who've started recently.
To be honest it may just be worth contacting the HR department directly, they can only say no.

Thanks for replies.

I would want to go to Bletchley/ Northampton.
Might try contacting hr?
Are you aware of any advertising campaign?
I have been looking directly on website (London midland and London northwestern) and on indeed.

Both - whichever comes up first. Quite a few came off freight recently.

But, if putting in via a trainee advert, I would probably also email them after applying just to ensure your application clears the initial sift.

Stevie - contact the relevant Company Council for where you want. They'll advise you of what's available or coming up, and more..........

The number's in your diary.

Best way to go about it mate.

Good luck.

You need to look on west Midlands trains vacancies it directed me to Abellio if I remember correctly. They were advertising in May. So probably be new yr before they look to advertise for qualified drivers again

Hello, a trainee driver job has now been advertised, but there is no way to email them as only contact is direct to abellio?
