Private Hire Taxi Drivers
Telford & Surrounding Areas
Full Time | Part Time | Flexible Hours
£1,000–£1,500+ Gross Per Week Potential (Fixed Rent – No High Commission)

Are you an experienced driver looking to earn a high weekly income in a busy and well-established private hire circuit?

Due to continued success, many lucrative school contracts and recent expansion plans, our client is looking for reliable Private Hire Taxi Drivers and Cat D / PSV Drivers to join their growing team in Telford. This is an excellent opportunity to work within a high-demand local area with consistent bookings and strong earning potential.

Unlike many taxi circuits, drivers benefit from a simple fixed weekly rental — meaning you keep what customers are charged, without losing large percentages to commission.

Vehicles can be provided, and for the right applicants, the company will fully guide and assist with obtaining your taxi licence if you are not currently licensed.

Why Join?

  • High earning potential – many drivers gross £1,000–£1,500+ per week
  • Fixed rent of only £140 per week – no high commission on fares
  • Many lucrative school contracts
  • No hidden charges
  • Only 5% charge on non-cash payments
  • Busy circuit with strong local demand
  • Located near Harper Adams University (3,000+ students requiring regular transport)
  • Rich market town with safe, reliable customers
  • Regular airport bookings
  • Customers often book higher-value fares
  • Modern driver app and efficient booking system
  • Friendly and supportive team environment – you’re not just a number on the circuit
  • Vehicle available if required
  • One of the highest drivers earning circuits within a 30-mile radius

Drivers already licensed with Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin, or Wolverhampton Councils are particularly encouraged to apply, with favourable rental rates available.

Opportunity for Owner Drivers

Drivers who already have a suitable vehicle can also place their car on the circuit and benefit from:

  • Fixed weekly rental from £140
  • Access to a busy advanced bookings circuit
  • Transparent pricing with no hidden costs
  • Potential to earn £1,200+ gross per week

What We're Looking For

  • Full UK driving licence
  • Minimum 3 years’ driving experience
  • Willing to undergo a DBS check
  • Must currently hold or be willing to obtain:
    • Telford & Wrekin Council Dual Licence (Taxi Badge), or
    • Wolverhampton Private Hire Licence
    • Professional, reliable and customer-focused approach
    • Age restrictions apply due to insurance requirements

Interested?

If you're a motivated driver looking for consistent work and strong weekly earnings, we’d love to hear from you.
