Hybrid working arrangements can evolve subject to business requirements. Job Overview London Buses carry the lion's share of passengers across the capital, offering one of the most affordable and accessible means of travel for up to four million journeys a day, across more than 600 routes. We are in the middle of a programme of improvements, as set out in our Bus Action Plan. This includes leading the decarbonisation of public transport to tackle climate change with plans to make the fleet zero emission no later than 2034. In addition, the wider team is driving forward plans to eradicate fatalities involving buses by 2030 and increasing ridership through improved journey times and a better customer experience. Our bus network is well connected and served by around 9,000 vehicles, with our bus contracts worth over £2 billion a year. This makes Bus Operations one of the most dynamic and high profile places to work, and a great place to get experience in an internationally recognised business.

This is no small task as all contracting activity must comply with prevalent domestic and EU legislation, Standing Orders and audit requirements.
