Job description

As one of our Self‑Employed Core Delivery Drivers you'll enjoy freedom, flexibility and better financial rewards, plus all the support and benefits of being part of our wider Yodel team. You don't need any experience, and the more you deliver, the more you earn.

Why join Yodel

Competitive rates for each parcel you deliver or collect. Typically, our Delivery Drivers can earn anything between £18 and £20 p/h (paid per parcel). We're in the business of delivering promises as well as parcels, so we’re raising our game and giving you more reasons to join us. All our rates are competitively enhanced taking business mileage and operational costs into consideration. It's a total game‑changer.

Daily & Weekly Payment Options

Yodel offers flexible payment options to all Self‑Employed delivery drivers. You can access earnings from the very next day via an app provided by our early‑access partner, Onsi, or join the weekly payment cycle scheme, which kicks in following four weeks of completed delivery services. Both options allow you to receive more regular payments for the services you have provided.

We’ll give you freedom and flexibility

You can plan your own route or use our award‑winning app with simple instructions and built‑in optimisation, which will help you prepare and plan your routes more easily, as well as allowing you to liaise directly with customers.

We’ll offer regular work in the same area, 6 days a week

We deliver parcels for some of the biggest retailers around, so there’s no shortage of work. You’ll be able to stay local and get to know the roads and customers.

We’ll develop and support you

You’ll get all the independence of being self‑employed, plus the backing of our expert team and access to a Yodel representative to answer your questions.

The Life of a Core Delivery Driver

Each day is what you make it. You can plan your own route, keeping things fresh and interesting. At each delivery or doorstep, use your mobile to scan parcels and make sure they’re safely received by the customer. We arrange a suitable time for you to collect your parcels daily, or, for those located within a more rural area, we can drop to you. Simple!

Want a bit more?

• Partner Discounts – Including Naked Wines, Beer Hawk and Hello Fresh.
• Health and Wellbeing Programmes – Offering support from managing relationships to finance.
• Develop and grow your business – Plenty of parcels to deliver means the earning opportunity is in your hands.

What you'll need to show us?

No experience? No problem! We give full training and support to help you get on your way. All you need to show us is the following to get started:

• Access to an insured car or van (up to 3.5 tonne)
• A full UK or EC/EEA Driving Licence
• Proof of Right to Work in the UK
• iOS or Android smartphone
• Proof of own bank account
• A great attitude
