Indeed although I think I see it now. Clicking one of the jobs links brings up this. Yet one of the requirements is a good knowledge of German, both spoken and written at least at B1 level.

To me, it reads like an auto-translated job application, could it mean coach driver? I can't see why a train driver based in Newcastle would need to know German, but i could perhaps understand if you were a coach driver making regular trips abroad.

National Express don't operate trains in the UK these days. They still operate in Germany though which is where I suspect this job will be located.

I had a look at the website of National Express Germany. The one on that Jobeya website is definitely an auto-translated one as the vacancies are not in the UK but Germany.

Here is the train driver vacancies in Munster, Koblenz, and Dusseldorf.
