Uber on the Lookout for Drivers as it Scales its Presence in Inverell 

by | May 14, 2026 | Business, Transport

Uber is growing its presence in Inverell and is calling on more locals to get behind the wheel as demand for rides in regional NSW continues to grow. With residents and visitors choosing the rideshare to move around town, Uber is encouraging locals to consider earning flexibly as a driver partner.

As part of its continued regional expansion across NSW, Uber is focusing on providing a seamless mobility experience for the community – one that every day Uber users have come to love and embrace in over 50 cities and towns nationwide. 

The expansion offers a way for residents to earn as more people look for flexible working opportunities that fit around their existing lifestyle. Drivers can choose their own hours, allowing them to balance driving with family, study, or other commitments. Whether it’s to top up their income, put money aside for a getaway, or simply enjoy the road – joining the platform means drivers are keeping Inverell connected while earning on the road.

“Uber’’s been available in Inverell for some time, and as part of our efforts to help locals get anywhere, we are now looking to grow our local driver partner community to ensure the best possible experience for everyone using the app,” said Daniel Lopez, Head of Driver Operations, Uber Australia and New Zealand, “It’s about making sure that when people in Inverell need to move, Uber is a ready and reliable option.”

Onboarding to become an Uber driver partner typically takes three to four weeks from sign-up to first trip, meaning new driver-partners can be ready to help move Inverell by Spring.

To support this local growth new driver partners in Inverell can access a special sign-up offer. Partners will get an extra $3000* when they complete 60 trips within 90 days of signing up, including unlocking the first $1,000 after just 30 tips. Drivers can sign up here to access this offer: https://p.uber.com/NSW
