Driving Jobs Overview
Driving jobs keep people and products moving around the country on a daily basis. In our fast-moving world, businesses and private citizens alike rely on professional drivers for safe and swift transportation. As a driver, you could be behind the wheel in a taxi, bus, lorry, or on a delivery motorbike.
You’ll need the appropriate driver’s license and possibly qualifications for transporting certain stock such as animals or hazardous materials. For a career that doesn’t have you stuck behind a desk, does away with the 9-5, and allows you to meet new people and see new places constantly, consider a job as a driver.
To expand your possibilities, search for other operations and logistics jobs with similar perks, such as:
Driver Training and Skills
To be a driver, you need to have a driver’s license suitable for the type of vehicle you’ll be working with. Depending on your industry, you may also need additional driver training or a qualification related to the type of cargo you’ll be transporting. For example, all drivers moving dangerous goods must have an ADR Certificate and attend an approved training course.
On the other hand, to be a taxi driver, you’ll need to pass background and medical checks, and take a local geography test. For black cab drivers in London, this is famously known as The Knowledge and has been a requirement for London taxi drivers since 1865. It takes three to four years to complete and involves learning the quickest routes through thousands of streets by heart.
Update Your Driving CV
You’ll usually be asked to provide an up-to-date CV with your application for a driving position. It’s important that you tailor yours to each vacancy by highlighting attributes and experience that are relevant to the employer you want to work for. Looking at this delivery driver job description example is a great way to help you hone your focus.

Interviewing as a Driver
Knowing how to prepare for your job interview can give you a greater chance of success as well as calm your interview nerves. Depending on the type of driving job you’re applying for, your potential employer will ask you about your specific skills and experience, and possibly ask you to sit a practical driving assessment. Whatever you’re up against, Monster has plenty of interview tips to help you get ready.
How Much Can You Make as a Driver?
Are you wondering if driving jobs pay well? It’s important to understand your worth before embarking on your search. For drivers, the salary all depends on the specific role, so do some research to see what you could earn. For example, bus and coach drivers make on average £26,520 per year, while large goods vehicle drivers can make around £31,200 annually. The areas of the country you work in, how many hours you drive, and what you haul will all play a part in your wage.
