Job Details

Driver - Nationwide

To allow our guests the opportunity to make the most of the club, we offer a driver service to get them from their villas to the club, and back again.

The driver role demands a great deal of flexibility and interaction with guests as well as a high level of practical ability, responsibility and awareness.

THE PELIGONI DRIVER SERVICE

The guest driver service is offered every day from 7am until the club closes, with the busiest times of day being the mid-morning when guests are coming down to the club for breakfast and in the late-afternoon and early-evening as guests return to their villas to get changed to come back for dinner. As the club closes, the drivers are one of the last to leave as they return guests to their villas after the evenings activities. On our extremely popular Party Nights the driver service can continue well into the early hours.  

In addition to driving our guests, the driver team are also responsible for our staff accommodations to the club for the rest of the Peligoni team to arrive at work.

Our driving team, between them, will cover all hours that the driving service runs as well as ‘staff lifts’ and when not driving will be required to carry out general maintenance tasks.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

Our drivers need to be self-motivated, resourceful and proactive. They will have a positive, can-do attitude and as a representative of Peligoni, they will be professional, polite and always willing to help.

In your spare time, as well as being able to explore the island and experience the local food and culture, you will have access to the club’s watersports facilities, allowing you to hone your existing skills or learn new ones in sailing and windsurfing.
