Location: Hobart

Job Category: Operations

At Metro Tasmania, our drivers tell us they stay because they feel supported and proud of the difference they make every day.

For more than 60 years, Metro has connected people and communities across Tasmania. As the state’s largest locally owned public transport provider, we offer a workplace where safety, wellbeing, and inclusion come first.

If you’re looking for meaningful work, long-term stability, and a supportive team environment, we’d love to hear from you.

Job Description

About the Role
As a Bus Driver at Metro, you’ll help keep Tasmania moving-safely, reliably, and with care. You’ll transport passengers to work, school, appointments, and community activities, playing a vital role in everyday life across the state.

You don’t need previous bus driving experience. If you can safely drive a car, we’ll teach you the rest. Our six-week paid training program is designed to build confidence gradually, with hands-on support, clear expectations, and experienced mentors. You’ll graduate with a Heavy Rigid (Metro-specific) licence and receive ongoing guidance once you’re on the road.

You’ll never be left to figure things out alone. Our drivers are supported by clear safety procedures, strong fatigue management, modern buses, and supervisors who encourage questions and prioritise wellbeing.

Why You’ll Enjoy Working at Metro

8 weeks paid leave (5 weeks annual leave + 3 weeks accrued days)
Paid training from day one, including licence upgrades
Personalised wellbeing program and Employee Assistance Program
Onsite physiotherapy, health checks and discounted gym memberships
Free onsite parking and free bus travel for you and one household member

Skills, Experience and What We’re Looking For

Current full Australian driver’s licence (held for at least 2 years)
Full working rights in Australia
Hold or have already applied for Registration to Work with Vulnerable People (Tasmania)
Strong commitment to safety, professionalism and respectful customer service

We value skills gained from many backgrounds, including customer service, care roles, hospitality, retail, community work and people returning to the workforce.

What We’ll Take Care Of
Metro will cover the cost of:

National Police Check
Pre-employment medical assessment including Drug and Alcohol testing
Public Passenger Vehicle (PPV) licence

Our Commitment to Inclusion
We actively encourage applications from women, career-changers and people returning to the workforce. Metro is committed to creating a safe, respectful and inclusive workplace where everyone belongs.
