In December, Addison Lee boss Liam Griffin accused Transport for London of “letting down” black taxi drivers – although his company does not run black cabs – and had “bottled” it by allowing Uber to operate in the capital. The GMB union said it is watching the situation “carefully” and meeting with the minicab firm today. In an internal letter seen by the Standard, Griffin said: “It has become clear that there is a business need to make organisational changes in the workforce, in order to become more efficient and in recognition that staffing levels may be too high in some teams.” Addison Lee said the jobs are “non-customer facing” back office roles and are part of a wider review of the business as it aims to build up its digital arm. The minicab firm, bought by private equity firm Carlyle Group in April 2013, this week posted an 11% rise in annual revenue to £196.6m and a 55% jump in profits to £33.5 million in filings to Companies House. Carlyle, which took a £17.2 million dividend, attempted to sell the business last year.

We’ve got a range of schemes to suit everybody. Unlike other car driver jobs we offer a vehicle rental scheme, where the more journeys you complete the cheaper the weekly vehicle rental charges become. Addison Lee vehicles are all typically less than 3 years old and are regularly maintained by our dedicated service technicians. This means that the hassle of organising insurance, MOT and PHV checks, repairs or replacement vehicle will be taken care of for you, allowing you to stay on the road and never miss an opportunity to earn more money.

As a self-employed driver it is your responsibility to hire a vehicle and to pay for the fuel and other costs. Customers pay for their journeys in two ways, so there are two ways we pay you. Account transactions Account customers pay us directly via their accounts.

We’ll add this money up and pay it into your bank each week. Non Account transactions Drivers keep 80% of the value of these journeys and pay a 20% commission to Addison Lee. Over half of this commission is re-invested into promotional codes to create more jobs for drivers.

For cash jobs the money is paid directly to drivers and for card jobs it is paid into your bank account each week. Above all, we look for enthusiasm and reliability in drivers. Experience with private hire driver jobs is not necessary, but a good working knowledge of London is required. Our Driver Knowledge School is available to help introduce drivers to the industry. You will need to apply for a Transport for London private hire licence and be able to speak English.

Manchester based drivers also require a good working knowledge of the area, and will need a current Private Hire Driver’s badge issued by Stockport Council.
