London Underground (LU) is recruiting 300 Tube station staff.
'Promotion opportunities'
An internal bulletin from LU on the new jobs reads: "It has been over three years since our last recruitment campaign, and we are now in a position to fill a number of vacancies in our station operations.
"These vacancies are as a result of a number of promotion opportunities that have been offered to existing staff who have moved on to be train operators (as lines run more services), station supervisors or work in other roles across the business."
LU chief operating officer Howard Collins said: "We are looking to recruit up to 300 new customer service assistants over the next six months to replace employees who have retired, left or moved to other jobs within LU.
"This will maintain our station staff numbers to the level we implemented in February 2011.
"That recruitment is all about continuing the Mayor's pledge to ensure we maintain a high visibility presence on all of our stations whenever services are running."
