Bus Driver - Batchelor

We operate essential transport services across Darwin, Humpty Doo, Jabiru, Batchelor and Alice Springs. While we’re proud to be part of a global transport group, our focus in the Territory is local — supporting communities, investing in people, and doing work that matters. This role is casual, but the work itself is ongoing and reliable. Our services run year-round, and many of our casual drivers enjoy consistent work across school terms, urban services, charter work, events and contracts. Casual employment offers flexibility — without limiting your ability to:
- Stay with us long term
- Build skills and confidence
- Progress your licences and endorsements
- Become a trusted, experienced driver within our operation Start where you are — we’ll support your development You don’t need to arrive fully qualified. We’re committed to developing our drivers over time and will support you with:
- Licence upgrades where required
- Support to obtain your H endorsement
- Ongoing, paid on-the-job training
- Opportunities to build experience across different services Even if you’ve never driven a bus before, we’ll pay you while training you to become a confident, safe and professional driver in our fleet. Versatile work that fits your life Our casual drivers value the ability to choose work that suits their lifestyle while still having access to regular opportunities. You may choose to:
- Work school runs during term time
- Pick up urban route driving
- Support charter, event and contract work
- Increase or adjust hours over time Many drivers start with limited availability and gradually build their hours as confidence and capability grow. You’ll be driving a modern, well-maintained and air-conditioned fleet, supported by strong safety systems and a team that genuinely values your contribution. About you We’re looking for people who value reliability, professionalism and community connection — and who are open to developing their skills over time. You’ll need:

- A current Working with Children Clearance (Ochre Card), or willingness to obtain one
