Would you like to earn a bit extra in time for Christmas this year? Then join Parcelforce via Manpower as a Collection & Delivery Driver and let’s get the festive season delivered.

There are some great benefits on offer, including:-
 

  • 28 days paid holiday (pro rata)
  • Access to Manpower Rewards (Discounts on adventure days)
  • Access to the MyPath upskilling programme

Your day will typically start between 6:00 & 8.30am (end time between 17:00 – 19:00)  and your duties will include:

  • Sorting out parcels, loading your vehicle and planning your route
  • Delivering to, and collecting a range of parcels and goods from, households & commercial businesses
  • Scanning parcels on and off route to ensure tracking information is available to customers and colleagues
  • Carrying out daily vehicle checks to ensure everyone receives a timely and highly professional service

To succeed, you’ll need a full UK manual driving licence (with no more than 6 points) covering vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes plus the ability to drive an extra-long wheel-base vehicle.

You’ll also need:

  • A positive approach and the ability to lift and carry parcels weighing up to 30kg.
  • Good time keeping and customer service skills
  • A professional appearance and attitude
  • Confidence when dealing with people
  • The ability to work well as part of a team and on your own initiative
  • Flexibility about working hours that can include Saturdays

A good geographical knowledge of the area would be an advantage, but is not essential.

So, don’t delay, take the first step towards earning some extra cash for Christmas. Apply now.
