Introduction
As a licensed driver you can be a self employed business person with the freedom to work as and when you wish on a 24/7 basis, 365 days a year. Alternatively, many licensed private hire drivers enjoy the benefits of being employed by a licensed operator. This flexibility affords the opportunity to have a worthwhile career to meet your own personal circumstances and requirements.

By becoming either a taxi or private hire driver you can play a part in delivering safe, reliable and integrated transport to all those who live in, work in or visit London.

The opportunity to have a career as a licensed driver in London is open to all and TfL is particularly keen to attract people who reflect the diversity of London’s population.
