I wonder if London weighting is included or on top? Not far off SE driver pay.
It’s included. Not far off £52,500. Very decent salary not to be sniffed at.

agreed, not bad at all!
Although ultimately still a good salary, the job is a guard, revenue inspector, shunter and driver, with a license that cannot be transferred too. LU revenue are on £55,000+ as it is, and drivers obvious much more. Depends on how you look at it.
However as discussed in previous DLR threads, there are mixed opinions about working for them.

I got sent a link to complete an OPC Situational Judgement Test a few days ago.
Congratulations! Fingers crossed I get one too!
I guess they get 1000's of applications fingers crossed for you

Yeah thats correct, it works out to be around £40 p/h on overtime rate (x1.5).
The basic salary already puts you on 40% anyway

Yeah but I thought the first 50k is 20% then anything thereafter is 40%

Yeah thats correct. But its a nice problem to have. And at x1.5 the tax burn isn't really felt so youre not missing out per say, unlike most other Railways that pay overtime at x1.0.
Quite a lot of their staff consistently take home 60k+ with a bit of overtime.
And for the real work horses, they take home 70k+.

Hello everyone, if you pass Situational judgement test what are the next steps please. I am waiting for the result. Really appreciate your time if someone can reply to this message. Thank you
The next stage would be an assessment centre and interview.
Anyone heard back since the SJTs? I completed mine I think on the 13th and haven’t heard since. A friend completed it a day or two after and got an email saying he failed the test a few days later. I’m hoping no news is good news for now…
Completed the final stage of the recruitment process today which consisted of 5 interview questions and a radio test, all on teams. I felt mine went well. Will have to wait till next week to learn the outcome. Fingers crossed
All the best to everyone who reached this stage or is about to do their final stage soon.

Congratulations! I’m still waiting for the out come of my assessment which I took 18th Jan. Don’t know why I haven’t gotten a reply back.
Which assessment was this? The final stage interview and radio test?
