About Cordic

At Cordic, we’re changing the tech game in the UK’s private hire sector. Our mission is to lead the Smart Fightback for independent fleets against Big Ride-Hail.

Owned by operators and for operators, we provide them with the rock-solid and innovative tools to take on ride-hail.

Backed by the considerable firepower of Oakfield Group and with offices in St. Ives, near Cambridge and London, we’re a fast-paced, close-knit hybrid team that focuses relentlessly on delivering for our customers.

If you like the idea of changing the game and enabling Davids to take down Goliath, then come and say hello. You’ll have the opportunity to make a tangible impact on the industry and shape the next generation of private hire technology.
