The AA Driving School is looking to cement its place as NZ's largest driving, riding and road safety training operator by seeking motivated teaching professionals who are looking to move their educational careers in a new, commercial direction or aspiring small business owners throughout the country to join us via our leading licensee model.
We take a friendly, supportive and encouraging approach to managing our relationships with our licensee Driving Instructors.
Based on the feedback that we have received from our students, it is clear that there is a preference for driving instructors who have a background in education or school teaching.
We are always on the lookout for engaged, passionate, teachers or educators who want an opportunity to own and run their own small business whilst helping to train, educate and de-risk NZ's next generation of drivers.
There is scope to focus on either automatic or manual transmission tuition and you can manage workload as you see fit to ensure that all important work/life balance.
A current NZTA "I" Endorsement is necessary to operate as a Driving Instructor - but we can help you with that if needed!
