• Conduct daily pre-trip and post-trip inspections and promptly report any defects or maintenance concerns
• Maintain accurate passenger counts, logs, and transportation records as required
• Keep shuttle interiors clean, organized and safe for all riders
• Demonstrate flexibility as transportation needs evolve, including potential future support for highway shuttle routes between Kamloops, Merritt and HVC
• Adapt to changing weather, road conditions, and operational priorities

• Support overall success of the project through cooperation, initiative, and willingness to assist where needed
• Other responsibilities to support the success of the company’s project and exceed client delivery expectations

• Experience driving in mountainous terrain, winter conditions, or remote industrial sites
• Physically capable of working in changing weather and road conditions for extended periods
