Job Description

Via is a forward-thinking transportation technology company focused on creating efficient, eco-friendly shared rides to reduce congestion and lower emissions. Operating in collaboration with Hampton Roads Transit (HRT), Via offers an innovative on-demand ridesharing service in Newport News, VA, revolutionizing urban transportation by leveraging app-based technology. As a platform, Via connects independent contractor Driver Partners with passengers requiring timely and affordable transportation solutions, ensuring a smooth and reliable transit experience within the community.

We are currently seeking new Driver Partners to join our dynamic team in Newport News. As a Driver Partner with Via, you will have the unique opportunity to earn up to $19.50 per hour (net, after vehicle-related expenses) while enjoying the flexibility and autonomy of being your own boss. Our Driver Partners benefit from a $300 new driver partner promotion designed to incentivize new drivers who commit to providing service on our platform. This role offers flexible hours with no minimum time commitments, allowing you to choose when you want to drive and how often, making it an ideal opportunity for individuals seeking supplemental income or full-time flexible work.

Driver Partners utilize an efficient routing system that enables shared rides, contributing to a greener environment by maximizing ride-sharing potential and reducing unnecessary mileage. Via supports its Driver Partners with 24/7 live customer support from real people, ensuring you always have assistance when needed. If you do not wish to use your personal vehicle, you can lease a vehicle through one of our vehicle leasing partners, allowing you to avoid wear and tear on your own car while maintaining the ability to serve passengers through our platform.

To excel in this role, candidates must meet a specific set of eligibility criteria, including being at least 25 years old, possessing more than one year of driving experience, and holding a personal auto insurance policy. All Driver Partners must pass background checks, including criminal and motor vehicle record verification, as well as complete DOT drug and alcohol testing in compliance with Federal Transit Administration (FTA) regulations. A Social Security Number (SSN) is required for these checks. The onboarding process includes completing a training session to familiarize yourself with our platform and standards.

Joining Via as a Driver Partner means becoming part of a growing movement to transform transportation for the better. You not only earn competitive compensation but also contribute positively to reducing traffic congestion and carbon footprint in Newport News. We are proud to offer an innovative and supportive work environment that prioritizes driver flexibility and customer satisfaction. Embark on a rewarding driving journey with Via where your vehicle becomes a vital part of a smarter, cleaner transportation network.
