STAGECOACH are having a recruitment drive for 38 new jobs in Fife.

Service changes throughout the summer have led to more opportunities to get behind the wheel of the buses.

The travel company have vacancies at depots in Dunfermline, Cowdenbeath, Glenrothes, Methil and St Andrews. 

Douglas Robertson, managing director for Stagecoach East Scotland said: “The service developments we’ve made recently, not only improve services for customers but contribute to the local economy and we’ve created even more jobs within the local community.

“Applications are open for driving jobs within our depots in Fife, and we’re delighted to welcome our recent new starts to the business.”

In July, the bus company made changes to services across the Kingdom.

This included departures to Edinburgh up to every 5 minutes from Ferrytoll Park and Ride and up to every 15 minutes from Halbeath Park and Ride.

A new service was also introduced with service X22 running between Dunfermline and Stirling.

Stagecoach also revised services across Fife from August 19, related to contract changes in the area and commercial changes to serve the new Dunfermline Learning Campus. 

Mr Robertson added: “We’re a proud local employer and we’re proud to serve the people of Fife every day.
