Job Description

Passengers in Richards Bay trust a staff transport contractor to get them there safely, and that trust is on your shoulders. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

Home base is a staff transport contractor on the Richards Bay side of KwaZulu-Natal. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

What you'll actually do

Inspect the bus before each trip: tyres, brakes, doors, emergency exits
Give tourists a friendly welcome and help with luggage on charters
Follow speed limits strictly; buses are tracked
Pick up and drop off schoolchildren only at approved points
Handle breakdowns calmly and keep passengers safe until help arrives

You'll need

Valid PrDP for passengers (P)
Punctual for very early starts
Patient and friendly with passengers
Valid Code 10 or Code 14 licence
At least 3 years of bus or taxi driving
Clean driving and criminal record

What's in it for you

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

Applying, step by step

Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: references from previous bus or taxi work plus licence card and passenger PrDP.
Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 10 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Richards Bay.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

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