Meet the Team

Geoff’s first car was a green Hillman Super Minx—built like a tank and looked like one, too. As the founder of Young Car Driver and our FCA-authorised Senior Manager (SMF29), he holds personal accountability for the integrity of our advice. Geoff completes monthly regulatory training via Seopa Ltd (Quotezone) to ensure every guide is accurate, honest, and protective of the 4.8 million young drivers we serve.

Verity’s first car was a silver Vauxhall Corsa that once belonged to her mum — until it met a fast-lane fate on the M6. A UK personal finance journalist with 14+ years’ experience, she now helps shape our content across learning, insurance, and car finance.

Gareth’s love for motoring began with a green VW Polo that proudly leaked oil wherever it went — like it was marking its territory. He brings real-world know-how and a no-nonsense approach to helping young drivers build confidence on the road.

Rebecca is an award-winning personal finance journalist with 15+ years' experience. Her work has appeared in The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Times, and The Independent — making her one of the UK’s most trusted consumer voices.

Luca's first car is a red Alfa Romeo – small, stylish, and convinced it is a Ferrari. Luca is 18 and has recently passed his driving test. He shares honest updates from his driving lessons, test prep to passing his test and onwards his future first car adventures — giving a real look at life as a young driver in the UK.

Anton is a cartoon illustrator with 10+ years’ experience. He worked with Geoff to create the characters and visuals seen across Young Car Driver. His bold, simple style helps make key topics — like driving, insurance, and finance — more engaging and easier to understand..
