Midibus Driver (School Routes)

Passengers in Paarl trust a staff transport contractor to get them there safely, and that trust is on your shoulders. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

The work is in Paarl, Western Cape, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

• Inspect the bus before each trip: tyres, brakes, doors, emergency exits
• Check passenger tickets, tags or staff cards when boarding
• Follow speed limits strictly; buses are tracked
• Keep the bus clean inside and report any damage
• Count passengers and make sure nobody stands beyond the limit

• At least 3 years of bus or taxi driving
• Punctual for very early starts
• Patient and friendly with passengers
• Medically fit

• Experience on mine or staff transport routes
• First-aid certificate

• Split-shift allowance on staff transport routes
• Tips and trip allowances on tour charters
• Paid passenger PrDP renewal

• Talk about safety records in the interview. Bus companies want to hear about zero accidents and on-time runs.
• Mention the number of passengers you have driven and the vehicle type, like "65-seater" or "22-seater midibus".
