We're growing, and we need you on our team!

Features

Driving for Illini Shuttle has several benefits over other driving jobs:

• Most of our work is done at a time when you're normally awake.
• Our trips start and end in Champaign, so you'll be home virtually every night.
• Our shuttles ride like cars, so you won't have to put your internal organs back where they belong at the end of a run - like you might after driving a truck.
• Our trips go to the same airports and suburban malls each week, so you're not always trying to find your way to an unfamiliar place.
• Our shuttles are clean and well-maintained.

Compensation & Benefits

We are currently hiring full-time and part-time Mini-Bus/Shuttle drivers.

Full-Time: You'll drive five or six trips to Chicago area each week (you choose whether you are a five day driver or six day driver). You'll typically work the same days each week, and specific trip assignments are known about 3 days in advance. Wage is $15/hr initially and $15.50 after 6 months of excellent service. All time is straight time. A $200/month health insurance allowance (to pay for insurance you purchase) is provided for employee after eight weeks of service.

Part-Time: You'll drive three trips per week, including at least one weekend day. Wage is $14.50/hr initially and $15 after 6 months of excellent service.

Training is paid at minimum wage and takes about 30 hours. Health insurance begins after eight week probationary period. You'll receive a $200 training completion bonus after you've driven your 10th trip after training.

Full-time employees both get one week of paid vacation starting one year after you drive your 10th trip after training.

Drivers with strong communication skills who demonstrate enthusiasm, commitment, and who are safe and reliable may be invited to do additional non-driving work, such as supervising loadings, training new drivers, etc.
