What families expect from a family driver
A family driver handles all the household driving and is comfortable with children in the car.
- All the family driving
- School and activity runs
- Shopping and appointments
- Keeping the car serviced
Agree the exact list in writing before the start date - every home shapes the role a little differently.
Skills and qualities to look for
Experience on a CV is a start, but these are the qualities worth testing in the interview and the trial:
- Patience with children
- Flexibility
- A clean record
- Reliability
What affects the salary
What you pay a family driver depends on experience, languages and whether the role is live-in or live-out. Full-time roles are agreed as a monthly salary.
Agree the figure directly with the candidate, confirm exactly what it covers - weekly day off, flights, accommodation - and put it in writing before the start date. A fair, clear package is the simplest way to keep a good worker long term.
A clear path from search to start date
- Shortlist two or three family drivers that match your role, location and budget.
- Interview each candidate and ask for specific examples from previous homes.
- Call references before you decide.
- Agree duties, salary, weekly day off and start date in writing.
- Sponsor the visa yourself or through a licensed Tadbeer centre, then begin with a short trial.
