Hire PCO Drivers in Barnet and Surrounding Areas

Barnet Airport Transfers works under London Taxis 24/7. We are a cab facilitator, so we introduce licensed PCO drivers to licensed minicab operators who need them. We are neither an employer nor an operator. You stay in control, and passengers get a driver who actually knows the area.

Call 020 8449 5555 to register or to hire.

Minicab Driver Jobs in Barnet for Licensed PCO Drivers

Do you hold a TfL private hire licence and want steady, pre-booked work? You are in the right place.

Many Barnet minicab firms have more bookings than drivers. Plenty of excellent drivers, meanwhile, sit tied to one company and wait for jobs that never come. We sit in the middle. Register once, tell us what you want, and we pass your details to operators whose work fits.

Registration is free. You never have to accept a match that doesn't suit you.

Why Drivers Choose Barnet Work

Barnet is a busy mix of homes, hospitals, schools and commuter stations. That means regular demand all week, not just at weekends.

Most jobs are booked in advance. You know the pickup, the destination and the fare before you set off. No circling the High Road hoping for a ping.

What You Need to Register as a Barnet Minicab Driver

Operators in our network usually ask for the same core documents. Have these ready when you call.

A current TfL private hire driver licence, or the licence from your local council if you work outside London
A full UK driving licence, normally held for at least three years
A valid enhanced DBS check
Proof of your right to work in the UK
Either a licensed, insured and MOT'd private hire vehicle, or a conversation with us about vehicle access
Good English and decent knowledge of North London routes

Do You Need Your Car?

Not always. Some operators can offer vehicle access to licensed drivers. If you drive your own car, tell us the make, model and seat count, because it helps us match you faster. Larger vehicles are in steady demand for 6 seater and 7 seater bookings.

What About ULEZ and Congestion Charge Costs?

All of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ, so a compliant vehicle matters. Private hire vehicles are also not exempt from the congestion charge. Check your car against TfL's rules before you apply, and ask the operator how they handle these costs.

Types of PCO Driver Jobs We Connect You To

Different drivers want different jobs. We ask first, then match.

Airport transfers

Pre-booked runs to Heathrow, Luton, Stansted, Gatwick and London City are a big part of what Barnet passengers need. Luton and Heathrow are both roughly 20 miles away, and the M25, A1(M) and A406 do most of the work. Longer, planned journeys suit drivers who prefer fewer, better jobs.

Luton airport runs

School runs

Term-time contracts give you the same routes, the same times and steady weekly income. They usually need an enhanced DBS check and a calm, patient manner.

Check the requirements

Hospital runs

Barnet Hospital on Wellhouse Lane and nearby clinics generate regular bookings. Patients and visitors value a driver who arrives early and stays friendly.

High Barnet work

Local and station

Everyday trips from High Barnet, New Barnet, Totteridge and Whetstone, Oakleigh Park and Cockfosters stations make up the daily core of local minicab work.

New Barnet work

Where Barnet Drivers Work

Local knowledge is what separates a good driver from a satnav follower. Our operators cover the whole borough and the areas around it.

Barnet Localities We Cover

High Barnet, Chipping Barnet, New Barnet, East Barnet, Friern Barnet, Whetstone, Totteridge, Oakleigh Park, Arkley, Underhill, Brunswick Park, Cockfosters and Hadley Wood.

Nearby Areas and Connections

We also match drivers to work in North Finchley, Mill Hill, Edgware, Colindale, Hendon, Golders Green, Potters Bar and Borehamwood. Many of these trips start with a passenger heading for the Northern Line or a main-line station such as King's Cross or Euston.

Why This Helps Passengers

A driver who knows the Barnet Hill queues, the school-time traffic on the A1000 and the quickest way onto the M25 gets people there calmer and on time. Better local drivers mean better journeys.

What We Check Before We Introduce a Driver

Safer, Licensed and Checked Drivers

Every driver we introduce must hold a valid private hire licence and an enhanced DBS check. That protects families, older passengers and anyone travelling alone at night.
