Driver Jobs in UK

Getaway drivers are not commonly advertised for, but this job title can refer to any number of jobs. These can vary from a taxi driver to courier work, or even long distance lorry driving. This means that work as a driver can be found to suit a particular person. For example, more social people may prefer driving people around as a chauffeur or taxi driver, whereas those that prefer a solitary working life might favour driving vast distances as a lorry driver.

The range of work available depends entirely on the person. A standard driving licence will entitle you to drive a car, but motorcycles, registered taxis and lorries require additional licences. These licence upgrades can come at a cost, but they can ultimately open doors to a lot of extra work. It is also important to ensure your licence remains clean and incidents are avoided, so insurance costs are kept down both for yourself as a freelance driver and for a potential company employing you.
