Drivers Wanted in Squamish, Pemberton & Whistler

Coastal Rides is a community-first, locally owned ride-hailing service proudly serving BC since 2020. We operate in communities across the province, connecting riders with safe, reliable, and friendly transportation while keeping profits closer to home.

We’re expanding in Squamish, Whistler, and Pemberton and are looking for dependable, customer-focused owner-operators who want to grow their own driving business with the support of a trusted BC-based platform. This is an opportunity to earn more per kilometre than with the big American rideshare apps, while being part of a team that values local drivers and the communities we serve.

What You’ll Earn:

• 73% of fares after transaction costs (payment processing, licensing & tech fees, insurance surcharges, and regulatory costs)
• 100% of passenger tips
• Higher take-home pay per km compared to the big American rideshare platforms
• Full flexibility — drive when it works for you
• The chance to build your own independent business, backed by a local brand

‍

Your Role as an Owner-Operator:

• Provide safe and professional transportation for passengers
• Deliver outstanding customer service on every ride
• Maintain your vehicle in clean, roadworthy condition
• Use the Coastal Rides driver app to manage and complete trips

‍

What You’ll Need to Get Started:

• Valid Class 1, 2, or 4 BC Driver’s Licence
• 3+ years of driving experience
• Clean driving record & ability to pass a background check
• A vehicle (less than 10 years old) that passes a commercial inspection and is insured for ride-hailing
• Smartphone with data plan
• Strong knowledge of Squamish, Whistler, Pemberton, and surrounding areas
• A professional, positive approach with customers
• Availability during peak demand times (evenings, weekends, holidays)
