Toronto TTC Needs Drivers: No Degree, Up to $43/hour

Arriving in Toronto in 2022 from Australia, I've been exploring the city's job market and finding opportunities that might interest fellow expats and digital nomads. One such opportunity is the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) hiring for transit operator positions, offering a competitive salary with no degree required.

The TTC is looking for individuals to drive buses, streetcars, subways, and other transit vehicles. The role requires a minimum of 40 hours per week and involves customer service, safety, and route knowledge. With a starting salary of $33.45 to $43.66 per hour, you can earn at least $69,576 to $90,812 annually if you work the full year.

Here’s what you need to apply:

• High school diploma or equivalent
• Prior customer service experience
• Ontario Class G driver's license
• Class CZ for bus operators or Class F for Wheel-Trans operators
• Knowledge of the Greater Toronto Area (GTA)
• Reading, writing, and following instructions

The application deadline is October 23, 2026, so if you're looking for a stable job with a good salary, this could be a great fit. It's a great opportunity for those with a passion for public transportation or simply looking for a higher-paying role in Toronto.
