Sadly none of the decent relevant recruitment agencies will touch you until you have 3-5 years experience in the private family sector, so yet another brick wall.

Isn't that a bit of a chicken/egg paradox? How do they recruit drivers?

Indeed it is, lorry driving was exactly the same when I started in 1993. You needed to be 25 back then for insurance and have 2 years experience. I was lucky I got a break and started aged 23.

I"m not sure how the staffing agencies in London are getting their chauffeurs for private family type jobs? The job that I just went for, the recruitment consultant contacted me and it all went from there.
