Description

For over four years, JTS CDL Training has proudly served the WaKeeney community, helping more than 250 students earn their Commercial Driver’s License and launch successful driving careers. We provide a supportive, hands-on learning environment focused on building safe, confident professional drivers.

 

We are seeking an experienced, patient commercial driver to manage our training lot and lead Behind-the-Wheel (BTW) instruction. In this role, you will focus entirely on hands-on practical skills—no classroom or online teaching required, as students complete all theory before reaching the yard.

This is a low-stress, flexible opportunity to share your industry experience, mentor upcoming drivers, and take pride in their success.

Key Responsibilities

  • Oversee yard operations and conduct hands-on Behind-the-Wheel training.
  • Instruct and evaluate students on Pre-Trip InspectionsBacking Maneuvers, and On-Road Driving.
  • Coach experienced drivers to sharpen their skills for test readiness.
  • Teach foundational techniques (shifting/floating gears, tight-space backing, road awareness) to entry-level trainees.
  • Maintain a positive, supportive, and safety-focused training environment.

Schedule & Ideal Candidate

  • Flexible Hours: We are open to hiring either a Part-Time or Full-Time instructor depending on your availability. The schedule fluctuates with student enrollment, offering natural breathing room between training cycles.
  • Great Fit: Perfect for semi-retired drivers, owner-operators, or experienced CDL holders who want local, steady work without long-haul demands. We value a dependable leader who enjoys mentoring and sharing real-world road knowledge.

Qualifications

  • Valid Class A Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) with a clean driving record.
  • Prior commercial driving experience; manual transmission experience preferred.
  • Strong communication skills with a patient, encouraging approach to coaching.
