Developed Employment Services is a family-owned Humboldt business. For 15 years we've worked alongside adults with developmental disabilities, teaching real job skills, building confidence, and helping them take part in their community. We're hiring a few good people to drive our clients to their day programs in the morning, coach them during the day, and drive them home in the afternoon.
This is a steady job with benefits and a purpose. You'll be the dependable, friendly person who gets someone to their program safely, then helps them learn and succeed once they're there.

- Paid holidays (including your birthday), paid vacation, and paid time off

What we're looking for:
- A patient, positive, dependable person who genuinely likes helping others
- At least 21 years old with a valid California driver's license and a clean driving record
- Comfort driving daily and working with people
- Willingness to pass a background check (Live Scan), which we'll walk you through, because our clients' safety comes first
