We’re London’s largest bus operator, running 26 per cent of the capital’s world-famous red network from 17 garages.

We maintain approximately 2,400 vehicles to industry leading standards and those buses serve the city 24/7, safely transporting millions of passengers annually.

We’re also the UK’s biggest, most experienced and innovative zero-emission bus company, with a fleet of over 500 electric vehicles.

Due to continued business growth, we start 2024 looking for additional colleagues to join our award-winning engineering team.

We’re currently recruiting experienced engineers across an extensive number of potential work locations in East, North and South London, offering:

  • A competitive salary.
  • A commitment to lifelong learning and development.
  • The opportunity to join a professional department at the forefront of decarbonising the capital’s buses.
  • Free travel on the Transport for London system.
  • Discounted fares on other Go-Ahead services.
  • The security of working for an international passenger transport company.

We welcome applications from anyone interested in working for us and are happy to informally engage over the phone.  You can also get in touch by pressing the blue “Apply Now” button at the top of this page.

2024’s going to be an exciting year for the company, with more e-buses joining the fleet, new vehicle technologies coming online and a significant building improvement programme starting at our garages.
