Want to work as a taxi driver? Here's your chance!
Eight months ago, I decided to do something that, years ago, I probably would have said, “That’s not for me.”
After more than 25 years in the building services industry, I made the switch to Goed Arbeidsmarkt – Taxi Personeelsdiensten. Changing careers at my age felt daunting, but I now know it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
Whereas I used to travel around with a toolbox, I now help people find new jobs. I meet with candidates, job coaches, HR managers, recruiters, and clients; write job postings; provide advice on the Collective Bargaining Agreement for Healthcare Transportation & Taxi Services; coach job applicants; and ensure that the right driver ends up in the right position.
The best part of my job? The moment when, thanks to our help, someone can enjoy going back to work. That brings me satisfaction day after day.
Why work through Taxi Personeelsdiensten?

We are always looking for enthusiastic drivers for positions such as:
School transportation;
WMO transportation;
Group transportation;
Medical transportation.
Whether you have years of experience or are looking to take a completely new step in your career, we’ll guide you through the entire process. Even if you don’t have a taxi license yet, we’ll work with you to explore your options.
Who is this job suitable for?
Working as a taxi driver is an option for many different people. For example, if you:
are looking for a new challenge;

are looking for a great (pre-)retirement job;

What can you expect?
No two workdays are the same. You meet new people every day, build a large social network, and often become a familiar face to your passengers.

Do you dare to take the plunge?
My own career change has taught me that you're never too old to start something new. You always take your experience with you; you just use it in a different way.
Maybe now is the time to take your next step.
We'd be happy to help you with that.
Hop in, discover the possibilities, and see for yourself how rewarding a career as a taxi driver can be.
