Postal Walker

About the role An Excellent opportunity to join Royal Mail in the busiest time of the year. During this 4 week Minimum agency assignment you will have a real impact, in the heart of your community, while working for one of the UK's most well-loved brands. Delivering mail and parcels to houses and businesses within a set area, you'll be the face of Royal Mail in your local community, working flexible hours to deliver outstanding levels of service expected by our customers. You'll start your day in the local delivery office, sorting the mail for your route, before joining a colleague in a shared van to start your round. You'll each be given a hand-held computer device to capture customer signatures for deliveries and the round will take around four hours to complete. But don't worry - our new delivery methods mean you won't be carrying heavy bags (there's a trolley for that), although completing your round on foot will keep you in good shape. You will work between Monday to Saturday from 08:00 to 15:00. 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 shift patterns will appeal to you. We deliver mail come rain or shine, so we're looking for people who like being outdoors whatever the weather, and because there is walking involved in every round, 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 ideal and for roles with driving, a full driving licence with no more than six penalty points is essential. About Royal Mail Royal Mail are an inclusive employer with equality, diversity and fairness at the heart of their values.
