About the role
This will be a mixture of van driving to deliver parcels and walking routes to deliver letters.
You’ll start your day for an hour or so in the local delivery office, sorting the mail for your route. If you are driving a van to complete your round, you’ll be given a hand-held computer device to capture customer signatures for deliveries. The hand-held computer will also act as your routing system putting your round in the most economical route, telling you which house to go to next.
And for walking a route, you will be paired with someone who will show you the route and how to complete it.

About You

Upbeat and self-motivated, you’ll be as happy working alone as you will be working as part of a team and getting to know the different people on your round. You’ll have a strong sense of community and the idea of doing a job that involves flexible working patterns will appeal to you.

We deliver parcels come rain or shine, so we’re looking for people who like being outdoors whatever the weather, you’ll also be someone who likes the idea of doing a job that will help you keep fit.

Some experience in a customer facing role would be beneficial.

Driving licence requirements

A full UK manual driving licence (in your current UK address), with no more than six penalty points is essential, but a clean licence is preferred.
