Driver Hire Oxford celebrates 25 years in business

Lorraine Thompson, owner of Driver Hire Oxford, is celebrating 25 years in business. Lorraine started her Driver Hire recruitment business in 1995. Over the past quarter of a century the business has gone from strength to strength, expanding its services to include hospitality and is regularly one of Driver Hire’s top performing offices.

As part of the Driver Hire franchise network, Driver Hire Oxford’s team provide a round-the-clock service to a wide variety of local businesses, and finds work for local people on a daily basis. In addition to recruitment, Lorraine and her team are also leaders in the delivery of Driver Certificate of Professional Competence training.

Her twenty-five year stint has made Lorraine one of the longest standing franchisees in our 103-office nationwide network. Only two other franchisees have achieved this feat.

“We always aim to deliver on what we promise,” says Lorraine. “That means being level and upfront with our customers. I also firmly believe that being a franchise – and therefore an owner-operated business – gives us more drive and an attention to detail that managed businesses find hard to match. I’ve loved every minute of being a Driver Hire franchisee and am excited and looking forward to continuing to meet the needs of all our customers.”
