Airport Transfer Driver

Responsibilities

• Meet guests at Oaxaca airport with name board — warm, genuinely Oaxacan welcome

• Maintain vehicle in clean, comfortable condition
• Handle luggage with care — Oaxaca's cultural tourism guests often travel with photography equipment and artisan purchases
• Coordinate with boutique hotel on arrival timing
• Execute departure transfers punctually — Oaxaca Airport is small; check-in lines move quickly

• Basic English — Oaxaca's international cultural tourism market requires basic bilingual greeting and orientation

• Warm, Oaxacan personality — the first impression of a destination city should match the city's genuine character
• Professional presentation

Benefits

• IMSS, Aguinaldo, vacation + premium
• Vehicle and fuel covered
• Uniform

Work environment

Oaxaca airport and city center transfer routes. Shorter distances and lower volume than coastal resort markets — a more relationship-oriented, personality-driven transfer role.

About the role

The first Oaxacan. Oaxaca City's cultural tourism reputation is built on authenticity, warmth, and depth — and the airport transfer driver is the first person who embodies that reputation for every arriving guest. The driver who says, as the colonial church towers come into view on the approach to the centro, "that's Santo Domingo — built by the Dominicans in 1570 on a Zapotec ceremonial site, and the market next to it has been selling chocolate since before the Spanish arrived" — has said more about Oaxaca in one sentence than a hundred travel articles.
