At Onward, we believe transportation should be about more than simply moving people from point A to point B. For many older adults, individuals with disabilities, and those facing health challenges, a ride represents dignity, independence, and connection. As a Companion Driver with Onward in Seattle Metro, you can help make that possible.
​
The Seattle metro area is known for its vibrant neighborhoods, natural beauty, and growing communities—but getting around isn’t always easy for everyone.

THE ONWARD DIFFERENCE IN SEATTLE
Life in the Seattle metro area offers stunning waterfront views, vibrant neighborhoods, and strong communities—but for many residents, it can also come with mobility challenges. Seniors in communities like Edmonds or Shoreline may need help getting to the grocery store, patients visiting major medical centers in Seattle, Everett, or Bellevue rely on dependable transportation for ongoing treatments, and many grandparents need assistance attending family gatherings.
​
As a Companion Driver, you help make all of those everyday moments possible. You might start your morning with a pickup in Lynnwood for a physical therapy appointment in Everett, then help a patient in Bellevue get to their weekly dialysis session, and later escort a grandmother in Kirkland to a birthday celebration in Redmond. Throughout the day, you provide more than a ride—you offer conversation, reassurance, and a trusted presence that riders come to rely on.
​
This is purpose-driven work that pays well, fits your schedule, and makes a meaningful difference for people across King and Snohomish Counties.
