Have you ever wondered what a typical life as a private chauffeur includes? Read on to learn about what Paul’s typical day is like, working in for a busy family of six in Central London.
7am
I arrive at 7am. The household is busy as the children are getting ready for school. A quick briefing with the house manager, and then I take the children to school. The children attend three different schools, so I have to make sure to allow for busy London traffic and delays to make sure we arrive to school at a prompt time. The family nanny join us so I can take her to run some errands after school drop off.
8:30am
I drop the nanny off at the uniform shop and return back to pick up my principal to take him to the office.
9am – 11am
I drop off the principal at his office and then go to collect the nanny, I take her to a number of other shops for appointments and to collect items for the children.
11am
Dropping off the nanny at home, I pickup the principal’s wife to take her to her lunch appointment. I drop her off and return back to the property. Back at the property I do a deep clean of the Range Rover as it was used at the weekend for a shoot and it’s very muddy!
1pm
Lunch time, I eat with the other staff in the home.
2:30pm
I pickup the principals wife and return her home. I then complete the clean of the Range Rover and book it in for a service.
3pm
I leave to go and pickup the children from school. Once I have collected them all, I return them to their home.
4:30pm
I perform a stock take in the garage, making sure all car inventory items are in stock and up to date. I re-order items which are running low. I then collect the principal from his office and return him home.
5:30pm
Work day over, I do final checks and say goodbye to the household staff.
