Job description

Parcel Delivery Driver

Location: Chichester

Contract: Temporary

Hours: 1300 - 2000

Shift: 5 days over Monday to Saturday

Hourly Rate: £13.37 p/h

Royal Mail is one of the UK's best-loved brands, bringing letters and parcels to people around the country. They are 150,000 strong with 500 years of history and are proud of the service they provide.

About the role

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 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 and telling you which house to go to next.

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 ideal.

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. Please note you will be required to show this at your induction.

To apply, please attach your CV or call the Southampton branch.
