drive for the best
This page is for new drivers. If you're already licenced - click here!
How we work
You can drive one of our company funded vehicles. You'll be driving an immaculate, nearly-new branded vehicle. We cover the fuel, insurance and maintenance, leaving you free to concentrate on making money.
We split the money you make at the end of each week. We leave you with 40% (Plus you can keep your tips). A hardworking driver, covering mostly antisocial hours can put £2500 through a car in a week (£1000 plus tips for the driver). You are free to find a work-life balance anywhere below that which suits you. Many drivers aim for about £600 per week.
How you work
Committed: If you commit to a minimum of one fixed shift per week, we'll treat you as a priority. You'll get priority of work allocation and first refusal of long-distance bookings.
Casual: Completely flexible. No expectations. Come and go as you please. We won't take pre-bookings for you, but you'll be able to help us out at busy times. In quieter times we'll prioritise more committed drivers, but this may suit you if:
What you'll need...
What's it like?
This is probably the least stressful work you can imagine. We work with some great repeat customers who are happy to pay good prices for a no-frills, genuine and reliable service.
We enjoy our work - if you're the kind of person to make an effort, you'll find our control team helpful and supportive. There is often a fair amount of friendly banter and it's good to know the other drivers are trying as hard as you.
You'll meet a huge cross-section of people. We're well-loved by local families, students, the business community and even a few celebrities.
A frequent comment we get from new drivers is that they enjoy leaving it all behind at the end of the shift. When you park the cab up you are done - there's no emails and no management headaches.

- You want to work busy times anyway.
- You have other priorities in life (work, family etc) and can't commit to regular hours.
- You come and go through the year (commitments in other countries).
What you'll need...
- 21+ for insurance.
- 2 Years driving experience (Max of 6 penalty points).
- Know the area (We use navigation, but basic area and landmark knowledge is helpful).
- A sunny disposition, and to enjoy meeting new people.
