Full Job Description

As a Coach Tour Driver, you will work an average of 219 working days and a maximum 232 worked days with the average shift length of a tour driver being less than 8 hours. We would consider applicants not only living on the Isle of Wight so location could be in and around this area.

The Alfa Leisureplex Group is one of the UK's most highly respected coach holiday and hotel companies with a consolidated turnover of over £70 million per year. We are the UK's only employee-owned Travel Group and our brands include Leisureplex Hotels and Alfa Travel. Our mission is to provide high quality memorable holidays for our guests.

Leisureplex Hotels own and operate 24 hotels in the UK's most popular seaside locations. We have a combined bed stock of over 2,000 rooms and achieve strong all year-round occupancies due to our sister brands Alfa Travel, plus our links to other coach operators and group organisers.

You would be joining the group during an exciting period of growth as we continue to see significant growth in the number of customers choosing to holiday with us each year. As an employee-owned business with over 950 employee owners, we see our people as our most valuable asset in growing our business and continuing to provide a high-quality service to our customers.

You will be paid an Annual Salary of £30,500 with 29 days of paid holiday.

Customer service comes naturally as you will be representing the Alfa Travel brand throughout the holiday.
You will be a safe and efficient driver, comfortable with the use of technology and a maximum of 3 point on your licence.
Comfortable with spending periods of time away from home; this is very much a lifestyle choice and you will be away on tour with limited time back at home.
