A family driver brief should show the complete route schedule, authorised pickups and vehicle requirements. Overlapping school and office times need to be resolved before hiring.

Put every fixed journey on one timetable
List school drop-offs, collections, office travel and recurring activities with realistic departure times. Include waiting and the journey between destinations. If two pickups overlap, identify an alternative rather than leaving the driver to solve an impossible schedule. Explain how often evening or weekend travel is expected.
Assess the relevant driving experience
Describe the actual vehicle, transmission and typical routes. Ask about comparable household work and arrange appropriate checks for the licence and experience needed. If a practical assessment is used, agree its scope and supervision. Familiarity with one vehicle or route should not be assumed to cover every proposed journey.
Define collection and communication rules
Specify who may authorise changes, who can be collected and how the household confirms an unexpected instruction. Agree a contact method that does not require unsafe phone use while driving. School handovers should follow the school's procedures and the household's agreed permissions. A driver role does not automatically include childcare duties beyond the defined transport arrangement.
Agree vehicle and expense responsibilities
Set the fuel approval, receipt and maintenance-reporting process. Explain where the vehicle is kept and who holds keys. Confirm the working day, breaks and how delays or additional journeys are handled. Review the timetable after the first week using actual journeys, especially where several family members share the driver.
A practical example to adapt
Example conflict: one school collection is scheduled while another family member needs an office pickup elsewhere. Before interviewing, decide whether one time can change or another transport arrangement is needed. Do not rely on optimistic journey estimates to solve the overlap. Share the final timetable with the candidate, then review it against actual travel. Clear route priorities protect the arrangement from repeated last-minute requests that cannot all be met.
