Your week with ETIOCA

An operator, not a marketplace.

Each car works 20 hours a day across three shifts. Every job is dispatched to the nearest car, so there's less empty driving and no waiting at the rank hoping for a fare.

Shift 2 · 8 h

Evenings

The car stays on the road and a colleague takes over.

4 h window

Always ready

We charge, wash and check the car, so it's ready for your next shift.

What's in it for you

Everything a driver should have had all along.

  • £18 an hour, guaranteed, about 1.4 times the UK median, with holiday pay and a pension.
  • A new vehicle at no cost, with insurance, maintenance and servicing included. You pay only for energy and half the car wash.
  • Keep your licence: Hackney carriage and private-hire drivers join with the licence they already hold.
  • A protected cabin, quiet electric driving and a vehicle built for the job.
  • Worker status, with the rights that come with it.
  • A reserve car always ready: we keep a 20% reserve fleet, so if your car breaks down or is in an accident, you switch cars and your shift, and your pay, carry on.
