Job description

DRIVE WITH PURPOSE. EARN WITH FLEXIBILITY.


Become a STAR Transportation Partner!


Your Vehicle. Your Availability. Your Opportunity to Make a Difference.


NOW RECRUITING | CENTRAL FLORIDA


Are you a caring, dependable driver who enjoys helping others? Are you a CNA, nurse, caregiver, rideshare driver, retiree, or someone who simply has a heart for service?


STAR Transportation wants YOU!


Join our growing network of transportation partners and earn income while making a meaningful difference in someone’s day.


How the STAR Network Works

Unlike traditional rideshare services, STAR Transportation focuses on pre-scheduled, personalized transportation for individuals traveling to medical appointments, community activities, personal errands, and other destinations.


As a STAR Transportation Partner, you can:


  • - Drive your own vehicle: Use your approved personal vehicle to provide ambulatory passenger transportation.

  • - Expand your earning opportunities: Qualify for additional wheelchair and stretcher transportation assignments through optional training and approval.

  • - Earn based on service: Compensation is determined by the level of passenger assistance required—not the luxury or type of vehicle you drive.

  • - Enjoy predictable scheduling: Most transportation requests are booked in advance, with additional opportunities for last-minute trips.

  • - Receive assigned trips: Serve passengers within our established Central Florida transportation network.

  • - Choose your availability: Select the blocks of time you want to make yourself available for transportation assignments.


Who We’re Looking For


  • Compassionate, patient, professional, and service-oriented.

  • Dependable, punctual, and committed to passenger safety.

  • Comfortable assisting seniors and individuals with varying mobility needs.

  • Able to communicate professionally with passengers and our dispatch team.

  • Interested in providing a higher standard of personalized transportation.


CNAs, nurses, home health aides, and experienced caregivers are strongly encouraged to apply!


Healthcare experience is preferred but not required.


Basic Qualifications


  • - Valid driver’s license and acceptable driving history.

  • - Current vehicle registration and required automobile insurance.

  • - 2022 or newer vehicle preferred. Older vehicles may be considered if they are in exceptional condition and pass inspection.

  • - Reliable, clean, properly maintained personal vehicle.

  • - Rideshare or appropriate commercial-use insurance endorsement as required by STAR.

  • - Ability to complete STAR’s onboarding, safety, and passenger-assistance training.

  • - Smartphone capable of accessing transportation assignments.

  • - Ability to pass required background checks, drug screening, and applicable DOT medical screening.


STAR Partner Incentive

Rideshare Insurance Endorsement Assistance Available!


Qualified transportation partners may be eligible for a voucher or reimbursement of up to $30 toward an approved rideshare insurance endorsement.


READY TO BECOME A STAR?

Join a transportation network where compassion matters, flexibility is valued, and every trip has a purpose.


Drive With Purpose. Serve With Heart. Be a STAR.
