Keolis Downer Hunter General Manager, Mark Dunlop, said being a professional Bus Operator involves a lot more than driving.

“We are looking for people who are hard workers and have a positive attitude to join the Keolis Downer Hunter team.
“No experience is necessary. We will provide you with the comprehensive training you need to become a professional bus driver including safety, customer service and operating buses.
“If you are motivated, friendly and reliable, we want to hear from you.”
Maicon Felipe Flores de Carvalho joined KDH as a bus driver around a year ago. It was a complete lifestyle change from his previous job as a labourer and he has not looked back.
“My grandfather was a bus driver and I wanted to follow in his footsteps so I’m glad I made the change.
“It is very rewarding work being involved in the daily life of the local community and connecting people where they need to go.”
