When precision, professionalism and flexibility matter, transport should never be an afterthought. For senior executives, investment teams and client-facing professionals, Addison Lee’s As Directed service offers a refined, reliable solution designed for the most demanding schedules, particularly during financial roadshows and high-stakes business days.

Rather than juggling multiple point-to-point journeys around London, our hourly hire provides a seamless, chauffeur-driven experience that adapts around you, not the other way around.

What is As Directed?

Addison Lee’s As Directed service allows you to hire a vehicle and professional driver by the hour, keeping them at your disposal throughout the day. Your driver remains on standby, ready to move as your schedule evolves, whether meetings run over, locations change or additional stops are required.

With luxury vehicle options, experienced drivers and priority service, As Directed is designed for executives who expect the highest standards.

Benefits of hourly hire

Complete flexibility throughout the day

Meetings run late, locations change and unexpected stops are often unavoidable. With our As Directed service, your driver adjusts in real time. No rebooking, no waiting and no disruption to your schedule.

One booking instead of multiple journeys

Managing several point-to-point bookings creates unnecessary admin and pressure. Hourly hire consolidates everything into one simple booking with one dedicated driver, removing complexity and saving valuable time.

A premium mobile environment

Our vehicles offer a quiet, comfortable space where you can work, take calls or simply reset between appointments. With a professional driver handling traffic and logistics, travel time becomes productive, or restorative, time.
