Van Driver - Western Sydney

Van Driver – Community Connection Program

Connection happens when we are present in the places women already are.

Our vans help 4 Voices create welcoming community spaces where women can share a cuppa, join an activity, access practical assistance or simply connect with others.

As a Van Driver, you will help make that possible. By transporting and caring for the van, you enable our volunteer team to arrive safely, reliably and ready to welcome women.

Commitment: Up to five hours per fortnight.

What you’ll do

• Collect and safely drive the van to scheduled community locations

• Help set up and pack down the Community Connection space

• Keep the van organised, stocked and ready for each shift

• Complete basic vehicle safety checks and share any concerns with the Shift Leader

• Help create a welcoming, respectful and safe environment

• Work alongside the volunteer team to support a smooth and positive shift

You’ll be supported with

• Clear guidance and practical training
• Shadow shifts to help you build confidence
• Support from a Shift Leader and volunteer team
• Ongoing learning and assistance when you need it

This could be a great fit if you are

• A safe, calm and reliable driver
• Organised and comfortable taking responsibility for the van
• Friendly, respectful and happy to work as part of a team
• Willing to help with simple setup, pack-down and practical tasks
• Someone others can count on to attend rostered shifts

What you can gain

• A welcoming and social volunteer experience
• Meaningful connection with your local community
• Confidence supporting safe and well-organised shifts
• Practical teamwork and community engagement experience
• The satisfaction of helping 4 Voices create connection before crisis

You do not need specialist community-services experience. We will provide the training, guidance and support you need.

Role requirements

• Current open C-class driver licence
• Eligible to obtain the relevant Working with Children or Vulnerable People Check

By helping us arrive safely and reliably, you help create a place where women feel welcome, valued and connected.
