Chauffeur

Private Executive Chauffeur job (M/F) in Miami, Florida, USA

Miami

Job Description

A HNW private principal based in Miami, Florida, is seeking an experienced, polished, and highly flexible Private Chauffeur to join his informal but fast-paced private household.

This is a long-term position suited to a chauffeur who is confident operating large luxury vehicles, knows the Miami area exceptionally well, and can adapt effortlessly to changing plans and last-minute requests.

The chauffeur will primarily be responsible for the principal’s daily transportation, with occasional driving for his wife, family members, or guests. Journeys will include appointments, restaurants, sporting and fitness facilities, medical visits, social engagements, airports, and other destinations throughout South Florida.

A distinctive feature of this position is the year-round guaranteed salary. The principal spends approximately four months each year away from Miami, during which the chauffeur has substantially lighter duties while continuing to receive their full salary. The remaining approximately eight months involve a high level of availability and flexibility while the principal is in residence.

Responsibilities

  • Provide safe, discreet, comfortable, and punctual transportation for the principal and, when required, his wife, family members, or guests.
  • Drive throughout Miami and the wider South Florida area, selecting efficient routes and anticipating traffic conditions.
  • Operate and confidently maneuver large luxury vehicles, including a full-size luxury SUV and a passenger vehicle accommodating six or more people.
  • Oversee the day-to-day care of the household vehicle fleet, including fueling, cleaning, detailing, inspections, servicing, repairs, and routine maintenance appointments.
  • Conduct regular vehicle checks and ensure all vehicles remain clean, safe, serviced, and ready for use.
  • Remain readily available at the residence or another designated location while the principal is in Miami, responding promptly to transportation requests.
  • Coordinate closely with the Personal Assistant, House Manager, and wider household team regarding schedules, movements, appointments, and changes to the daily agenda.
  • Handle occasional personal errands, including dry-cleaning collection, grocery runs, package collection, and similar requests.
  • Undertake occasional domestic travel within the United States when required, potentially for periods of up to a couple of weeks per year.
  • Maintain complete discretion and confidentiality regarding the principal, family, residence, schedule, and personal affairs.

 

Schedule & Availability

When the Principal Is in Residence – Approximately 8 Months Per Year

The position requires a high degree of flexibility and availability. Working days and hours will vary according to the principal’s schedule and may include:

  • Late morning starts, typically from around 10:00 AM onwards
  • Evening driving and late finishes
  • Short-notice and same-day requests
  • Extended working days when required
  • Availability up to 7 days per week, depending on the principal’s schedule

All hours worked over 40 hours per week are paid as overtime at 1.5x the applicable base rate.

When the Principal Is Away – Approximately 4 Months Per Year

The chauffeur continues to receive their full guaranteed annual salary, despite the significantly reduced workload.

During these periods, responsibilities are generally limited to essential vehicle care, maintenance coordination, occasional errands, and ensuring the vehicles remain in excellent condition and ready for the principal’s return.

This structure provides considerable personal downtime while offering the financial stability of a permanent, year-round position.

Job Requirements

The successful candidate will be an accomplished professional chauffeur who combines excellent driving skills with discretion, flexibility, and a genuine service-oriented approach.

You should have:

  • Extensive professional experience as a Private Chauffeur, Executive Chauffeur, or similar role within a private household or high-end environment.
  • Exceptional knowledge of Miami and South Florida, including major neighborhoods, traffic patterns, airports, private clubs, restaurants, medical facilities, sporting venues, and alternative routes.
  • Demonstrated confidence driving and maneuvering large and wide luxury vehicles, including full-size SUVs, Maybach-style vehicles, and passenger vans.
  • Excellent spatial awareness and the ability to navigate tight spaces, garages, valet areas, and unfamiliar locations confidently.
  • A calm, discreet, and composed personality.
  • The ability to adapt immediately when plans change and when no fixed daily itinerary is available.
  • A proactive approach to vehicle presentation, maintenance, and readiness.
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills when coordinating with PAs, House Managers, and other household staff.
  • Strong judgment, reliability, punctuality, and attention to detail.
  • Complete respect for privacy and confidentiality.

Additional Qualifications

  • US work authorization: US Citizen or Green Card holder with unrestricted authorization to work in the United States.
  • Languages: Fluent English is essential. Hebrew language skills would be an advantage but are not required.
  • Driving record: Clean driving history with satisfactory MVR verification.
  • Background screening: Comprehensive background check required.
  • Experience in executive protection, security, or secure transportation would be advantageous but is not essential.

Working Conditions

  • Position: Private Chauffeur
  • Location: Miami, Florida
  • Employment Type: Permanent, full-time W-2 direct hire
  • Start Date: As soon as possible
  • Schedule: Highly flexible; workload varies according to the principal’s residence and travel schedule
  • Overtime: 1.5x for hours worked over 40 per week
  • Benefits: Comprehensive health insurance, paid vacation, and discretionary annual performance bonus
  • Guaranteed Income: Full annual salary paid continuously throughout the year, including periods when the principal is traveling
