As an Airfield Driver in our Airfield Transport Operations team at RAF Brize Norton, you’ll play a vital role in keeping aircraft operations moving safely and efficiently. Your work supports critical Royal Air Force activity, helping ensure people, equipment, and missions are where they need to be — on time and to the highest safety standards.
Every day, your contribution helps create a positive impact on a key national defence site. By operating specialist vehicles and maintaining safe airfield operations, your work touches lives and supports communities, innovation, and the future of aviation services.

You’ll be entrusted to:
- Operate specialist airfield vehicles you are trained and licensed to drive, ensuring contractual and safety standards are met
- Follow safe working practices at all times, reporting any issues or discrepancies through the management chain
- Complete delegated duties in line with contract requirements and operational procedures
- Undertake non-driving duties such as vehicle cleaning and general care of vehicles and work areas
- Complete mandatory Serco, Defence Learning Environment (DLE), and other required training to maintain competency and currency
- Carry out additional tasks as instructed by the Operations Manager, Shift Supervisor, or deputy
Does this sound like you?
You’ll be a great fit for this role if you have:
- A full, clean UK driving licence
- Driving licence categories B, C, and C plus E (Category D is desirable but not essential)
