What the role involves
NDIS transport drivers help participants with disability and older Australians get where they need to go safely and on time. Transport is not always the most visible support in the NDIS, but for many participants it is the support that makes everything else possible. Without reliable transport, medical appointments get missed, community activities become out of reach, and independence shrinks.
In Ramsgate and surrounding areas, transport drivers typically assist participants to get to and from health appointments, day programs, work, shopping centres, and social activities. The role goes beyond driving. You help participants board and alight from the vehicle, handle mobility aids such as wheelchairs and walkers, and check in on how the person is travelling throughout the journey. You are often the first or last person a participant interacts with on any given day.
Wheelchair-accessible vehicle (WAV) experience is valuable for participants who cannot transfer out of their chair. If you drive your own vehicle, it needs to meet roadworthiness and insurance requirements set by the provider you work with.
Some roles are regular, structured runs at the same times each week. Others are more flexible and on-demand. The type of work varies across providers.
Who you would support
You may support adults with physical disability, intellectual disability, or mental health conditions, as well as older Australians who can no longer drive themselves. Some participants are quite independent and simply need transport from A to B. Others may need a higher level of support during the journey, particularly if they have communication differences or become distressed in unfamiliar situations.
Across Ramsgate, providers support participants with a wide range of needs, so the type of transport work you take on can be matched to your experience and comfort level.
How Carevo works
Carevo is not a traditional job board. It is a curated availability directory that connects transport drivers with NDIS and aged care providers.
You register on Carevo with details about your vehicle, your licence class, the type of transport support you can provide, your availability, and the areas around Ramsgate where you work. Carevo then presents your profile to providers in our network who are looking for drivers.
When a provider identifies your profile as a match, they contact you directly. You discuss the arrangement, the participants involved, and the expected schedule before deciding whether to take it on. You are not locked into anything just by registering.
Pay and working arrangements
Pay for NDIS transport drivers depends on whether you are employed by a provider or operating as an independent contractor, the type of vehicle you use, the time and day of shifts, and the state you work in. Carevo does not set or guarantee rates. Terms are agreed directly between you and the provider who contacts you.

What transport driver pay looks like

| Saturday | $40 to $48 an hour |

| Public holiday | $66 to $79 an hour |
Casual employees receive a 25% loading on top of these rates (often quoted as roughly $34 to $40 an hour for ordinary casual hours).
Indicative hourly rates based on the SCHADS Award (MA000100), reviewed July 2025. Modern award rates are national and do not vary by state. Pay is set by each provider and can be higher under an enterprise agreement. General information only, not financial advice.
