Health Shuttle Driver - Pukekohe and Waiuku

Driving a St John Shuttle vehicle, you will be responsible for ensuring clients safely reach their appointments on time. This volunteer role is highly customer focused and whilst some clients may be physically able, others may need assistance. Therefore, in addition to having a sensitivity toward those who are unwell, being physically fit is also important in this role.

Health Shuttles operate in most parts of the city but we are specifically looking for drivers in the Pukekohe and Waiuku area.

No prior experience is required, however there are of course some essential requirements:

Held a full and clean NZ Drivers Licence for at least 12 months (vehicle may be a manual)
Have a clean police record
Ability to commit to one shift rostered per week or fortnight
Have excellent communication and problem solving skills
Friendly, caring and compassionate, with a genuine interest in the well-being of others
An aptitude for diverse cultures
Be physically fit
Please note: all appointments are subject to satisfactory completion of pre-employment checks including, but not limited to, references, police and driver checks, and medical clearance. For driving roles, you will be required to meet the St John medical standards.

In return, we will provide relevant training (including First Aid Level 1), a uniform, ongoing support, and St John membership (which gives free ambulance service for immediate family).

The best gift anyone can give is 'time'. Come join our team of volunteers where the time they give is highly valued in their communities.

A Police background check is required for this role.

One rostered shift (8 hrs ) a week or fortnight.
