Your day deserves
a little more ease.

Who we are

HireDriver.pk is a driver placement agency based at Chandni Chowk, Rawalpindi. We help households, professionals and companies hire full-time drivers for their own vehicles, starting in the twin cities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi and extending to 13 more cities in Pakistan.

We built HireDriver.pk around one idea: a driver is someone you trust with your family, your time and your car, so hiring one deserves a clear process, honest terms and support if things do not work out.

How we work

• Full-time placements only, for your own car
• A careful brief before any shortlist
• Interviews and a trial drive before you decide
• One-time agency fee equal to the first monthly salary
• Free replacement if the driver leaves within six months

What we are not

We are not a rent-a-car service, a ride-hailing app or a driver job board. We do not provide vehicles, and we do not book drivers by the hour or day. This focus lets us concentrate on long-term placements that work for both employer and driver.

What we care about

• Honesty about salaries, availability and timelines
• Respect for drivers as skilled professionals
• Privacy for the families and companies we work with
• Clear, written terms on both sides

Contact us

Office: Chandni Chowk, Rawalpindi. Phone and WhatsApp: 0339 1222233. Share your area, car and duty hours and we will explain the next steps.

Who we work with

• Families who need a dependable driver for school runs, errands and elderly parents
• Professionals who want their commute and meeting time back
• Business owners and executives who need a driver they can trust with their schedule
• Companies, offices and organisations with one or more company cars

Every one of these employers wants the same things: a driver who turns up on time, drives safely, respects privacy and stays. Our process is built around finding that person and supporting the placement if it does not work out.

Cities we serve

Our office is at Chandni Chowk, Rawalpindi, and most placements are in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. We also arrange full-time drivers in Lahore, Karachi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar, Gujranwala, Hyderabad, Quetta, Sialkot, Sargodha, Bahawalpur, Jhang and Sheikhupura, with availability confirmed for each role.

Hiring a driver yourself vs using a placement agency in Pakistan

You can hire a driver yourself through referrals or classifieds, and many people do. The difficulty is time and risk: you have to screen dozens of calls, check documents you may not know how to verify, and start again from zero if the driver leaves after a month.

A placement agency does the first round of work for you. At HireDriver.pk we turn your requirements into a clear brief, shortlist drivers who fit your car, location and hours, and share their experience and references so you can run your own checks. You still interview, trial and choose the driver yourself, and you employ them directly. The difference is the safety net: if the driver we place leaves for any reason within six months, we provide a replacement without an additional agency fee.

How much does it cost to hire a driver in Pakistan?

Hiring a full-time driver in Pakistan has two costs. The first is the driver’s monthly salary, which you pay directly to the driver every month. The second is HireDriver.pk’s placement fee, which is charged once and equals the driver’s first monthly salary. There is no monthly commission, no registration charge and no hidden renewal fee.

The legal floor for a full-time salary in Pakistan is the Islamabad Capital Territory minimum wage for unskilled workers: Rs 40,700 per month for 26 working days (1 July 2026). Raised from Rs 37,000; notification reported on 19 August 2026. A driver is a skilled role, so most experienced drivers are paid above this floor. Published market data shows a very wide spread: WageIndicator reports pay for car, taxi and van drivers in Pakistan from Rs 16,710 to Rs 92,896 a month in 2026, and Indeed’s national average for drivers was Rs 30,006 a month (1 August 2026, 449 reported salaries). Those averages include part-time and informal work; for a full-time household or office role you should plan for at least the statutory minimum.

What pushes a driver’s salary up: long or unpredictable hours, frequent late evenings, Sunday duty, premium or automatic vehicles, executive and guest-handling duties, and a live-out arrangement where the driver commutes. What keeps it predictable: a fixed duty window, one weekly day off, a clear overtime rule and a written list of duties. Fuel, tolls, parking and servicing remain the car owner’s costs unless you agree otherwise.

How hiring a driver in Pakistan works, step by step

1. Share your brief: your pickup point in Pakistan, the car (make, model, automatic or manual), duty hours, days off and the kind of driving you need. Call or WhatsApp 0339 1222233, or use the enquiry form.
2. Agree the salary range: we discuss a realistic monthly salary for the hours and duties, and explain the one-time placement fee.
3. Shortlist: we match candidates against your vehicle, location and schedule and share their experience and references.
4. Interview: you meet the shortlisted drivers and ask about past employers, routes and how they handle problems.
5. Trial drive: the driver drives your car on your real route while you observe.
6. Checks and agreement: you verify documents and sign written terms with the driver.
7. Start date and support: the driver starts on the agreed date. If a placed driver leaves for any reason within six months, we provide a replacement with no additional agency fee.

Checks to complete before a driver starts in Pakistan

A good placement is built on checks you can actually verify. Before a driver starts work in Pakistan, ask for the original CNIC, a valid driving licence for your vehicle class and contact details for at least two previous employers. In Islamabad Capital Territory, licences are issued by Islamabad Traffic Police (ITP), which offers online licence verification; confirm the licence number, category and expiry date there rather than relying on a photocopy.

• CNIC: match the name and photograph to the person you meet, and keep a copy with consent.
• Driving licence: check the category covers your car (a car/jeep licence for a private car; LTV or HTV for commercial vehicles) and that it has not expired.
• References: speak to previous employers yourself and ask how long the driver worked, why they left and whether they would rehire.
• Police character certificate: ask for a character certificate from Islamabad Police where available.
• Trial drive: a supervised drive in your own car, on your real route, including parking and a busy junction.
• Written terms: duties, hours, salary, weekly day off, overtime and notice period.

Household employment in Islamabad Capital Territory is also covered by the Islamabad Capital Territory Domestic Workers Act, 2022. Read the current text or take advice on written terms, rest days and wages for domestic workers before finalising the agreement.
