Hi this is my first post! My dream job like most people on this forum is to become a train driver. I have spent most my working life in senior management in a trainer capacity. I am finding it difficult to find any trainee driver posts in the Northwest. I am now looking for a Guard/Conductor role until a vacancy arises. I spend every evening testing myself for the tests. I have spent most of my working life in male dominated industries so I am not worried about become a female driver. I find working with mainly men more enjoyable than women. If anyone in the Northwest can point me in the right direction I would be more than greatful. I have joined most job alerts on the TOC's home pages.
Michelle, keep looking on the Northern website. We had vacancies for Lime St, Piccadilly and Buxton 2 weeks ago.
