Vacancies

Open positions

This page is the only official list of our vacancies. It is updated as soon as a position opens.

No open positions at the moment

We are not hiring at the moment. Rather than leave an out-of-date advert online, we would rather say so: this page tells you where things stand today.

You can still send a speculative application. We read it, we reply, and we keep it for the next opening.

Speculative application

What it is really like

A small company, a hands-on trade

Founded by a chauffeur

Novalia’s founder still drives. Decisions are made by people who know the work from the inside — the hours, the waiting at the airport, what irritates a client.

The tools are our own

Website, operations console, dispatch, invoicing: all built in house. What is wrong gets fixed the same day, not in a software vendor’s next quarterly release.

A network, not a garage

Novalia operates in France and across Europe with selected partner fleets. The work is as much about holding a network together as it is about keeping cars on the road.

What we look for

An eye for detail, clear writing, and the instinct to tell people before they have to ask. The rest can be learnt.

What we will not do

No promise we cannot keep, to a client or to a candidate. Always a reply — even when the answer is no.

A question before you apply?

Write to contact@novaliafleet.com. It is the same address as the form, and it is read.

Application

Tell us what you can do

No standard covering letter: a few honest lines are worth more. Tell us what you are looking for, what you have already done, and what brought you here.

  • A reply within 10 days, including when the answer is no.
  • No attachment required: a link is enough.
  • Your details are used only to consider your application.

Are you a self-employed private hire chauffeur, or do you run a fleet? The right page is Become a partner chauffeur: the framework there is a partnership, with its own terms.

Frequently asked questions

Applying, in practice

The questions that come up, and our answers as they stand.

Are there any positions open at the moment?

No. There are no open positions at the moment. This page is the only reliable source: it is updated as soon as a vacancy opens, and we never advertise anywhere else without listing it here.

Can I send a speculative application?

Yes, and it is the right thing to do when nothing is open. We read every application and reply within 10 days, including to say no. Applications that interest us are kept, and we come back to them when a position opens.

I am a private hire chauffeur: is this where I apply?

No, that is a different door. Chauffeurs and fleets who want to work with Novalia go through the “Become a partner chauffeur” page: that is an independent partnership, not an employment contract.

Do I need a particular qualification?

No. We look at what you can do and at the way you explain it. Experience in transport, hospitality or client care counts for a lot, but it is not a requirement.

Do you work remotely?

Operations calls for a presence on the French Riviera, because it means knowing the ground. Product, engineering and marketing roles can be done remotely, with regular catch-ups.
