Owner-Operator
& Employment Opportunities |
|||
| Westchester Express is proud to have been a pioneer
in the use of Owner-Operator drivers. Back in the early ‘80’s
Westchester Express was one of the first companies in the nation to
use Owner-Operators in the airport ground transportation industry.
Today, Westchester Express’s Owner-Operators form the core of our driving staff. An Owner-Operator, with their vested interest in our business, provides a higher level of service than the typical employee driver. It has to do with the pride-in-ownership that goes along with being an Owner-Operator. Owner-Operators have the complete support of Westchester Express Shuttle’s operation facility. A new Owner-Operator goes through a comprehensive training program and quickly becomes an expert in airport operation and customer service. Contrary to what many people think, previous airport transportation experience is not a key element in making a successful Owner-Operator. Some of our most successful Owner-Operators have come from completely different fields. We have former teachers, police officers, business people of all types, who their own vans and drive for Westchester Express. What they have in common is a desire for independence and a love for both driving and interacting with people. As a Westchester Express Owner-Operator you are in business for yourself, but not by yourself. A small investment is required to become an Owner-Operator and a good income is available to all who enjoy people and driving. |
