    Tour Truck Driver, East Africa

     

    The world needs more Intrepid people:

    Do you dream of being part of unforgettable travel experiences across East Africa - bringing adventure to life by safely transporting travellers, supporting seamless tour operations, and being a welcoming presence on the road? As a Tour Truck Driver with Intrepid, you’ll play a vital role in making every journey smooth, safe, and truly memorable. 

    Every day will be different, but every day you will:  

    • Ensure the safe, reliable and professional driving of our overland tour trucks as you navigate diverse routes across East Africa 
    • Support tour leaders with essential logistics such as loading and unloading equipment, organising supplies, and helping create efficient travel days 
    • Maintain the vehicle to a high standard - keeping it clean, fueled, well-organised and mechanically sound 
    • Be the calm, capable first point of call when challenges arise, using your driving expertise and practical problem-solving skills 
    • Provide friendly, respectful and engaging interactions with travellers, helping cultivate a positive group experience 
    • Uphold Intrepid’s safety policies and responsible travel ethos throughout every journey 

      To be considered you must have:  

    • A valid commercial driver’s licence and a clean driving record 
    • Proven experience driving heavy vehicles, ideally across East Africa 
    • Basic mechanical knowledge to troubleshoot issues on the road 
    • Strong communication skills and a customer-first mindset 
    • Willingness to work long hours, weekends, and travel extensively across multiple regions 
    • Familiarity with East African roads, border crossings, and terrain (advantageous) 

    Desirable: 

    • A passion for travel and commitment to Intrepid’s responsible travel philosophy 
    • Alignment with Intrepid’s values: Real, Impactful, Ambitious, Together 
    • A digital mindset and comfort with basic tech tools 
    • Driver-guide qualifications (advantageous but not essential) 

    What you need to know:  

    • This is a freelance agreement role, offering flexibility, but it requires strong availability during peak travel seasons 
    • Recruitment is underway now, with onboarding and training taking place ahead of the coming travel season 
    • The role is physically and mentally demanding - involving long driving days, outdoor activity, and consistent engagement with travellers 
    • You’ll spend significant time away from home, with some trips running for several weeks at a time 
    • You’ll be driving across multiple East African regions, playing a key part in bringing our overland adventures to life
