APPOINTMENTS ARE SUBJECT TO OVERSIGHT APPROVAL. Work Location: New York, NY Additional Information: *Due to the necessary duties of this position, candidate may be required to work outside of regular business hours such as weekends and/or nights/evenings.* What Makes This Position Different: • This is not a traditional desk-based outreach position (60% in the field and 40% in the office). The Driver Engagement Advocate is expected to be where drivers are, develop relationships directly with the industry, and bring the driver's perspective into the agency. Including conversations with drivers at an airport at 10 p.m., attending a driver meeting, taking the pulse of driver concerns being discussed online, and then translating those conversations into clear, useful information that can help TLC respond to the industry. • The ideal candidate has firsthand experience as a recent TLC-licensed driver or significant knowledge of New York City’s taxi and for-hire vehicle industry. • The Driver Engagement advocate will need to have flexible schedule, including evenings, nights, and occasional weekends, to reflect the hours and locations where drivers work and gather. Including meetings at airports, taxi stands, transportation hubs, restaurants, garages, houses of worship and other driver gathering places — and engaging with drivers in a genuine, approachable, and culturally competent manner.
