About the Role
As our Club J Driver, you’ll safely transport children in TK through 5th grade from partner schools to Club J each afternoon in an OFJCC van. Safety comes first: you’ll account for every child at every stop, get them to Club J safely and follow protocol if a child doesn’t show up. This is a seasonal, part-time role that runs only during the school year, on days partner schools are in session. You’ll report to the Club J Director.
Schedule
- Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday: approximately 2:00–4:00 PM
- Wednesday (early dismissal): approximately 12:45–2:45 PM
- $30 - $32/per hour
What You’ll Do
- Safely drive an OFJCC Club J van on assigned afternoon pick-up routes, following all traffic laws and vehicle safety policies
- Verify every child against the daily pick-up roster before leaving each school, and follow protocol if a child is missing
- Help children board and exit safely, including seatbelts and safety restraints
- Do a full visual check of the van after every route to make sure no child is left behind, and confirm the headcount at hand-off to Club J staff
- Communicate with school front offices about dismissal times and changes, and report any incidents or vehicle issues right away
What You Bring
- Age 21 or older, with a valid California Class C driver’s license and a safe driving record that meets OFJCC insurance requirements
- Experience working with or transporting children in TK through 5th grade (preferred)
- Strong attention to detail, with the ability to stay calm and follow protocol in unexpected situations
- Punctuality and dependability throughout the school year
- A cleared background check (fingerprints, Child Abuse Index Check and Medical/TB as applicable), plus Pediatric First Aid and CPR certification or willingness to obtain it
