Job Details

This is your opportunity to have a real impact, in the heart of your community, while working for one of the UK's most well-loved brands.


Working as a Postal Delivery Driver to support our client at their busiest time! You will receive £11.14 per hour working from between 09:00 - 17:00 38 hours a week, and shifts will be between Monday - Saturday but you must be fully flexible as shift times can often change!!

Walking will be involved so please be aware it will be walking covering up to 10 miles a day and driving as well! All vehicles are manual

About the role

Delivering mail and parcels to houses and businesses within a set area, you'll be the face of our client in your local community, working flexible hours to deliver outstanding levels of service expected by our customers.

You'll start your day for an hour or so in the local delivery office, sorting the mail for your route, before taking out your van to complete 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. 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.

You'll also enjoy our excellent benefits package, including access to training and development tools, paid annual leave and staff discounts.

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 and packets 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 ideal and for roles with driving, a full driving license with no more than six penalty points is essential.

Manpower are a temporary employment agency on behalf of our clients and this is a temporary vacancy for around 5 - 12 weeks and can end at any time - all applicants will be subjected to a basic DBS check
