Do you want to study in English to become a bus driver and work in a well-paid customer service job? We are looking for people interested in working as a bus driver for our English-language RekryKoulutus, in which we train new bus drivers for our depots in Helsinki (Roihupelto), Vantaa (Köysikuja) and Espoo (Klovi).

Together with our passengers and clients, we have a unique possibility to make a difference. With sustainable responsibility and innovation that contribute to more fossil-free travel. Together, we keep society moving every day.

Selection criteria:

· You have a driving licence at class B or above
· You have a Finnish or an EU country driver's license
· The state of your health meets the criteria specified in the driver’s licence regulations

We offer you:

If you don’t yet speak Finnish, you should be motivated to learn the language skills required in your profession while working, because Nobina’s corporate language is Finnish and the operational instructions are written in Finnish. We will initially hire you for a fixed-term employment relationship and establish a permanent employment relationship when your language skills are at the required level.
