A Driver is responsible for transporting clients from their pickup point to their destination in a timely and safe manner. Using a vehicle to successfully transport people, performing pre-trip inspections, performing child checks post-route, and keeping their vehicle within DOT regulations are the most important tasks of the driver.

Specific responsibilities include driving company vehicles, interacting with clients, program personnel, and client support staff in the field, communicating with dispatch in a clear and concise manner, and maintaining a professional appearance and demeanor in the field.

This position generally follows a typical Monday through Friday work week and is considered a split shift position with AM runs in the morning and PM runs in the afternoon into the evening. However, there are some situations that would dictate otherwise as required by customer demand such as charters, med runs, or shuttle runs. This has the potential to include weekend work per request.
