Owner-Operator Driver – Current Taxi Kelowna
Current TaxiSome guests remember the ride for years. Not because of the car, but because of the person behind the wheel. That's the driver who had the door open before they reached it, got them to the airport calmly at 4 AM, and made a nervous first-time flyer laugh on the way. That's who we're looking for. Current Taxi Limited is inviting owner-operators in Kelowna: people who want to invest in their own electric vehicle and run their own business under the Current name. This isn't a taxi driving job. It's a chance to build something of your own. You own the car, you choose your hours and you grow your own reputation with your guests. HOW IT WORKS - You own and operate your electric vehicle. - You keep 80% of the meter, before your costs. - Current keeps 20%, which covers the booking platform, corporate account bookings, marketing and the Current brand guests already know. A SIMPLE SOLO MONTH (example figures, before costs, not a promise of income) - About $10,000 meter revenue - About $700 car payment - About $900 to $1,000 insurance - About $100 home charging - Very little maintenance beyond tires Your results will depend on your hours, the season and how you build your business. We'll walk through the full numbers with you, and we encourage you to review them with your accountant. YOUR CAR CAN EARN WHILE YOU'RE OFF Team up with a day or night operator. Your car keeps working while you rest, and some of the running costs are shared. WHERE THE NEED IS Our busiest window is early morning, from about 3:30 to 6:30 AM, with steady demand through to about noon. Evening operators are always needed too, and demand shifts with the seasons. ACCOUNT RIDES: A BIG PART OF WHO WE ARE Current Taxi is trusted by account partners such as Interior Health and ICBC. Every day we help guests get to and from hospital treatments and physiotherapy, and get kids to gymnastics and activities. These rides bring steady, booked-ahead work and loyal guests, and our owner-operators are proud to be part of them. YOU'LL DO WELL HERE IF - You make guests feel looked after, whether it's an early airport run or a regular heading to treatment. - You're reliable on pre-booked times. Our guests book ahead and count on you. - You take pride in your car and your reputation. - You think like an owner: you know your costs, plan your charging around your day and fill your hours wisely. - You like working independently while respecting a shared brand. The best fits usually come from hospitality and service, people who've looked after guests in hotels, restaurants, healthcare or similar roles. How you treat people matters more to us than years behind the wheel. PEACE OF MIND FOR OUR GUESTS Every Current Taxi driver holds a criminal record and vulnerable sector check, so families and account guests can ride with confidence. It's part of our application process. HOW TO APPLY Tell us in a few lines: 1. What part of joining Current appeals to you? 2. When would you be available to start? 3. Do you have a car? 4.
