Job Description

Via is a technology-driven transportation company dedicated to revolutionizing the way people move by providing efficient and sustainable shared rides. Leveraging cutting-edge app-based technology, Via optimizes the connection between riders and drivers to reduce unnecessary congestion, lower emissions, and enhance urban mobility. With a focus on creating a seamless shared ride experience, Via partners with independent contractors who serve as Driver Partners. This flexibility allows drivers to use their own vehicles and operate on their own schedule while helping to deliver effective transportation solutions to communities.

In Hampton Roads Transit (HRT), Via has developed a strategic partnership to provide paratransit services tailored to meet the needs of the local community. This partnership enables drivers to earn competitive rates while benefiting from a platform designed for smart, shared transportation rides. As a Driver Partner for Via in HRT, you have the opportunity to earn up to $25 per hour, with an additional $100 new driver partner promotion as a welcome incentive. The driving model embraced by Via is unique in its flexibility: there are no minimum commitments, allowing drivers to log on and off as they please, providing greater control over their work-life balance. Beyond financial benefits, driver partners benefit from 24/7 live support offered by real people, ensuring assistance is always available when needed.

This role is ideal for self-motivated individuals aged 25 or older who have a valid driver’s license and have maintained a safe driving record for over one year. Drivers are required to pass a vehicle inspection and background checks, as well as comply with DOT drug and alcohol testing regulations required under Federal Transit Administration (FTA) rules. The use of a personal vehicle not only adds convenience but also ensures that drivers can operate with familiarity and confidence in their daily responsibilities. Safety, reliability, and excellent customer service define the qualities expected from drivers within the Via platform, aligning with its mission to provide unmatched transportation options for communities like Hampton Roads. This job offers the chance to be part of a transformative movement in urban transportation with earnings based on the number of hours logged on the platform, making it a flexible part-time or full-time opportunity based on personal preference and availability.
