Just a heads up for anyone looking they are advertising for class 1 drivers at the swrdc in severn beach. First time this century apparently
But is it RM direct or via an agency? If direct what happened to all the posties getting them? Also os it perm or just run up to Christmas.
No itâs direct, permanent. Jobs on indeed at the moment. Will probably be working nights only and every fri-mon, you donât get a good duty at R/m til you have 25yrs + service.
Of course you wonât actually stand a chance of getting the job unless you have been there on agency for the last 10yrs
Is it christmas cover only though?
RM Severn Beach are notorious for only taking on their agency drivers and never used to touch anyone from outside.

Makes sense really doesnât it? 10 odd years to check somebody out should give you a rough idea about the person

Sounds like they are looking across the country. However, although it sounds like a very nice job, I do recall working for the post office directly in 2001, where I was taken on only to cover Christmas period, from October to the end of December.

I had no idea âIndeedâ actually advertised full time permanent jobs, rather than âongoing contract workââŚ?
I think youâll find that every RM VOC that has the 16â2" trailers - are looking for more candidates to drive the long way around on routes that the full time staff cannot do - due to the â10 hours on duty at nightâ rule that only applies to Full Timers, rather than Agency who can do 3x15 hours plus 3x13 hour shifts in the same week.
Dodgy bits I recall from where I used to work were (and still areâŚ) âGetting your combination to ELDC Thurrock from kent when the right hand bore of the dartford tunnel seems to be shut every night without failâ and âAccidentally missing the eastbound offslip for hangar lane on the A40âŚâ Where there is a 16â headroom underpass on the A40 right after that offslip!
If a shift is likely to be longer than 10 hours on duty at night time - the shift will need to be given out to agency. The full timers cannot pick it up on docket.
