Are you someone who loves making people's day, enjoys a good drive, and can snap a great photo? We're looking for a Van Driver to join our friendly community at Matua Village! Our much-loved bus driver is retiring after doing a wonderful job, and now we're looking for someone equally special to step into this rewarding role.
In this role, you will:
Safely transport our residents to fun outings and village activities in the van.
Be the friendly face that welcomes everyone aboard, ensuring each journey is a comfortable, safe, and fun experience.
Take photos during outings to capture those special moments for our newsletters – we love to showcase the great times our residents have!
Assist with resident welfare checks to ensure everyone is doing well.
Help with some village tasks like cleaning the van and putting away the bins on Fridays (teamwork makes the dream work!).
Keep health and safety front and center, ensuring the van is in top shape and all road rules are followed.
Work with our fantastic team to create the best experience for our residents.
Your Schedule:
Wednesday: 9:30 am – 12:00 pm
Minimum of 8 hours per week, with opportunities for additional hours based on village needs.
Plus, you also may be needed for:
Big Day Out once a month – more fun adventures with the residents!
Be available to cover weekend welfare checks.
Other trips or events as needed (because sometimes, extra outings = extra fun!).
About You:
A big heart and a genuine love for working with our residents.
Fantastic communication skills to keep things upbeat and easy for everyone.
A reliable, friendly, and professional attitude (and a sense of humor doesn't hurt!).
Confidence in driving a large manual vehicle – safety first!
A current, clean New Zealand driver's license.
Ability to pass a police vet.
A P-Endorsement or the willingness to get one – we'll help you out with that!
Our wonderful bus driver is hanging up his keys, leaving big shoes to fill. If you're the kind of person who enjoys making every trip a little adventure, loves connecting with people, and can take a great photo to show off the fun – we'd love to have you on board!
Join our team at Matua Village and be part of a community where every day is an opportunity to make someone's day a little brighter.
Apply today and start driving happiness our way!
