Hi everyone.

Just wondering if anyone can shed some light on this job role with gwr.

Does anyone do this job already or going through the assessment process?

What are the hours like ect?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Good morning. I would be grateful if anyone has an idea of O/T opportunities for this role at Exeter and I assume that if your rota falls on the Sunday this bumps up your basic salary. TIA

Also would anyone know how the rota works out? It says 35 hours would that be a 4 day week?

Thanks :)

Fully depends on the shift pattern. When I was based at newton Abbot I used to get a week of rest days every so many weeks due to longer shifts , I belive the sda role does days and nights as well .

Thanks for the info. I was hoping it was 4 day week with longer days but i dont mind 5 days really.

Always a plus if you get extra days off tho as you say its like an extra weeks holiday.

Is the job interesting? Do you like the role? Atm i have to work 45 hours plus to get the same money as its saying and its only 35 hrs so for me its alot better.

I spent nearly 7 years on the station at newton Abbot and totnes , loved the job and have some cracking memories from those years.. I believe the photos of me are up in the totnes staff wall of fame .... if I could go stay on the same money as I am now then I would be back like a shot.....

Doing a bit of future planning, to see if I could afford the pay drop, has anyone got an idea of the take home pay after shifts etc? Thanks in advance

*Bump* Just thought I would wake this thread up. I see GWR are advertising for an SDA at Exeter again. Does anyone have an idea of salary following enhancements (Sunday & nights working etc), I know its around the £25k mark basic. TIA.
