🚖 We’re Hiring: Dispatcher / Call Taker
Location: Roach’s Taxi HQ – 216 Camelot Street, Thunder Bay
Wage: Starting at $18/hour | Paid Training
Type: Part-Time & Casual | In-Office Only
Start Date: Early November
📞 About the Role:
Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment, know your way around Thunder Bay, and have a voice that keeps things calm when the radios are crackling? We want YOU!
At Roach’s Taxi, we’re looking for someone to help keep the city moving — literally. You’ll answer calls from customers, dispatch trips using our software (we use iCabbi), and coordinate with drivers via radio and phone. When things go sideways (like tech hiccups or storms), you’ll step in with manual dispatch backup.
This role is part dispatcher, part call taker, part local superhero.
💻 What You’ll Be Doing:
Answer incoming taxi booking calls with a friendly, helpful attitude
Monitor trip flow and make sure the system is doing its job (and step in when it doesn’t)
Communicate with drivers over radio and phone
Provide excellent customer service — even under pressure
Manually dispatch trips during system downtimes
Keep the city moving, one trip at a time
✅ You’re a Good Fit If You:
Know your way around Thunder Bay
Can juggle a ringing phone, a talking radio, and a blinking screen — all without breaking a sweat
Are comfortable on a computer (typing, navigating apps, switching tabs, etc.)
Have solid multitasking skills and a good memory for street names
Are reliable, polite, and ready to be part of a 24/7 operation
Bonus points if you’ve worked with iCabbi or in a similar dispatch role — but it’s not required!
