Work as an independent van driver
The van, the loads and all the paperwork are on us. You need a category B licence and 6 months of experience — you work for yourself, not as an employee.
Who we are looking for
We look for drivers who have already run international routes, want to grow in the profession and want to work for themselves.
-
Category B licence
A valid category B licence — you do not need C+E for the van. -
At least 6 months of experience
Proven experience and positive references from your last job. -
Driver card printout
You can get the driver card printout on the spot at a Czech POINT office. -
No criminal record
You can get an extract from the criminal register on the spot at a Czech POINT office. -
Starting funds
You need enough for a refundable deposit (equal to one month’s rent — €1,856) and the first rent.
What you get
Everything an independent carrier needs, except the driving itself.
We find the loads
No freight exchange, no phoning around: our dispatch finds the load and you get it ready to go. The rate is around €0.70 per kilometre, and there are no tolls.
Iveco Daily on rental
Iveco Daily 3.0 for €1,856 a month, 12,000 km included, €0.07/km beyond that. Insurance, service and tyres are already in the rate.
The licence is ours, the živnost is yours
You do not need to set up a transport licence or a company — they stay with us. You work as an independent carrier.
We take the paperwork
Customer contracts, invoicing, expense records and ČNB rate conversion are ours. An administrative fee of €550 a month is deducted for this.
Example month: around €3,774
An example, not a promise: 12,000 km × €0.70 = €8,400; minus rental €1,856, fuel €2,220 (12,000 km × 0.1 l × €1.85 excl. VAT) and the €550 fee. That leaves around €3,774 before tax.
Employment or working for yourself
Each option has its strengths. We tell you upfront, before the call.
In employment
- All the profit stays with the employer
- The employer sets the routes, the vehicle and the schedule
- The employer supplies the vehicle and service — and decides when you drive again
- Holidays and days off follow the employer’s schedule
With Drivora
- The gap between the rate and your costs is yours
- You choose your routes and schedule
- Service, insurance and tyres are in the rental rate
- Take a day off or a holiday for as long as you like
Frequently asked questions
Is this a job vacancy?
No. Drivora does not hire drivers as staff — it provides the van, the loads and the administration to a driver who works on their own živnost as an independent carrier.
Which licence do I need?
Category B is enough. Experience from 6 months; the other requirements are the same as for category CE drivers.
Who finds the loads?
Drivora finds the loads. You do not work with a freight exchange or negotiate prices with customers.
What are my costs?
You pay for fuel and any fines, taxes and contributions, plus the €550 monthly administrative fee. There are no tolls. A refundable deposit equal to one month’s rent (€1,856) is paid at the start.
How much can I earn?
As a guide: at 12,000 km a month, around €3,774 remains before tax — an example, not a promise. The sum: €8,400 − rental €1,856 − fuel €2,220 − fee €550.
What if I do not have a živnost yet?
You can register the živnost after the vehicle inspection. It takes about a week, and we go through it with you by phone.
