Job description

College Track | Denver Office · 4777 National Western Drive $20–$30/hour · Part-Time, Non-Exempt · 3–8 PM, Monday–Thursday

College Track is looking for aVan Driver who understands that every trip behind the wheel is really a trip toward someone's future. You'll be the steady, reliable face scholars count on to get them safely from school to programming, from programming home, and — every once in a while — on the road to tour the campus where their story continues.

This isn't just a driving gig. It's a front-row seat to the college journey of first-generation, underrepresented students working to become the first in their families to earn a bachelor's degree.

Who We Are

College Track has spent nearly 30 years proving what's possible when talent meets opportunity. Since 1997, we've grown from 25 students in East Palo Alto to a national movement of 5,400+ scholars and alumni across California, Colorado, Louisiana, and the D.C. Metro Area — with a brand-new site launching in Baltimore.

The results speak for themselves: our scholars graduate at three times the national average for first-generation students, and by age 30, our alumni out-earn the national median. We're not just getting students to college — we're getting them through it, and into lives of opportunity, choice, purpose, and power.

What You'll Do

Get Scholars Where They Need to Be

• Pick students up after school and drive them safely to the College Track site
• Pick students up after programming and get them to their drop-off point — staying with them until they're safely handed off
• Drive scholars to college tours and off-site events (occasional evenings/weekends, always with advance notice)

Keep Everyone in the Loop

• Send a quick Slack or text reminder before each pickup so no one's left wondering
• Run time-sensitive errands during the gaps between drives

What You Bring

• A driver's heart and a mentor's mindset. First and foremost, you're a fierce advocate for helping students overcome real barriers on the road to a degree.
• 2+ years of experience driving a van or shuttle
• 2 years of experience working with students
• Punctuality — students should never be left waiting
• Availability 3–8 PM, Monday–Thursday, across 13 weeks of fall programming and 13 weeks of spring programming
• A valid driver's license and the ability to pass College Track's driver clearance process
• Physical readiness for the role: sitting, standing, walking, lifting up to 20 lbs, and the visual/motor demands of safe driving

Why You'll Love It Here

• $20–$30/hour
• Full access to College Track's wellness-focused benefits: health care, work-life balance, and financial security
