Working at Nexus

At Nexus, we are dedicated to transforming public transport for the benefit of our environment, economy, and communities. We understand the vital role our services play in the daily lives of people in Tyne and Wear, whether it’s commuting to work or education, enjoying family days out, nights out, or attending sporting events. Our Metro, bus, and ferry network ensures sustainable, reliable, and affordable travel options for everyone.

By planning, providing, and promoting public transport, we aim to improve the economic prosperity of North East England and enhance the daily lives of its residents. We're not just focused on today; we're committed to creating the travel networks that will serve future generations.
