City of Hobart, Australia Kinetic Full time

Join the Team That Keeps Tasmania Moving

We’re on the lookout for friendly, motivated people to become the new face of Kinetic, Australasia’s largest and fastest-growing bus operator. Whether you’re ready for a career change or just looking for something more rewarding, this is your chance to get behind the wheel of something bigger.

No Experience? No Problem

Our Car to Bus Licence Upgrade Program gives you everything you need to kickstart your driving career.

We’ll pay you while you train to upgrade your car licence to a Medium Rigid (MR) licence, followed by a five-week hands-on induction that combines classroom learning with on-road experience.

You’ll also receive ongoing mentoring and support for 12 months as you work towards a nationally recognised qualification, all while earning and gaining valuable real-world experience.

All you need to bring is a positive attitude, enthusiasm, and a passion for helping people get where they need to go.

What’s on Offer

- Multiple positions available, based in Hobart

- Great pay rates starting from $36 per hour

- Supportive, inclusive team environment

- Work that makes a real difference in your community

Our drivers provide exceptional customer service and ensure every journey is safe, clean, and reliable. You’ll drive a mix of services, from daily routes to charters and special events, and play an important role in keeping your community connected.

The wheels of change are in motion, are you ready to jump on board?

Who We’re Looking For

You don’t need bus driving experience, just the right attitude and a few key essentials:

- Great people skills and a customer-first mindset

- Held a Tasmanian Driver’s Licence for at least 2 years

- Willing to obtain a Tasmanian Driving Authorisation

- Willing to complete a pre-employment physical and medical check

- Full Australian working rights

- Reliable, punctual, and a team player

- Please note, you must be available to start January 2026

Why Choose Kinetic?

At Kinetic, we’re more than just a transport company, we’re a people company.

We’re leading the way with clean, green, and inclusive transport, investing in an electric fleet that’s driving us towards net zero.

You’ll find a welcoming team, a modern depot, and opportunities to grow your career while making a difference in your community. We celebrate diversity, value authenticity, and support each other to be our best every day.

Count on Kinetic for a brighter, cleaner, and more connected future.
