Are you ready to join an innovative team that pushes the boundaries of creativity and delivers top-notch results? At Aardvark Studios, we thrive in a multitude of creative landscapes.

  • Represent Aardvark Studios and our clients with professionalism at all times

What makes you the ideal candidate: 

  • Valid Class A or B CDL license required
  • 3+ years of experience operating CDL vehicles (Tour bus/Prevost and truck/trailer combinations preferred)

  • Available Mid-May to July with option to extend 
  • Excellent communication skills and client-facing professionalism
  • Mechanically and technically inclined
  • Ability to lift 50+ pounds
  • Service-oriented mindset and strong problem-solving skills
  • Comfortable working independently and as part of a small touring team

How we'll measure success: 

  • Safe, compliant vehicle operation throughout the tour
  • On-time arrivals and efficient event setup/breakdown
  • Minimal equipment downtime and proactive issue resolution
  • Professional representation of Aardvark Studios and client brands
  • Positive feedback from clients, partners, and internal teams
