Your job responsibilities as a taxi driver will include performing trips for Ecotaxi and Min Taxi's customers in Umeå and surrounding municipalities, and providing our customers with excellent service in the best possible way. Taxi driving is a very service-oriented profession with a lot of customer contact. It is easy to think that taxi driving is just about taking trips to/from bars on weekend nights, which is often what people associate with taxis. However, that is a very small part of taxi driving. Taxi services with us primarily involve community-funded traffic on weekdays. This includes medical trips for regions, school trips, and transport services for municipalities. There are also many business trips for corporate clients. You will constantly be working with people and often be a key part of their daily lives, helping them get to/from healthcare facilities, schools, work, etc.

We cover a large geographical area and operate in many parts of Norrland. We have vehicles stationed in Boden, Kalix, Luleå, Nordmaling, Robertsfors, Umeå, Vindeln, Vännäs, and Örnsköldsvik municipalities. It is not uncommon for us to have many longer trips across municipal borders and throughout large parts of Norrland.

In addition to performing trips and taking care of our customers, your job will also include keeping the vehicles you drive clean and well-maintained.

The company has a collective agreement, and salaries are paid in accordance with the collective agreement. For the position of driver in a special vehicle, hourly wages with additional pay apply according to the collective agreement.
