Job description

Delivery Driver - Immediate Start

Self-Employed | Local Routes | Weekly Pay | Paid Training

Join One Motion as a Self-Employed Delivery Driver delivering parcels in a fixed local area. This is a physical and fast-paced role, but once you learn your route, the job is straightforward.

We are looking for reliable, friendly, and hard-working drivers who can deliver excellent customer service and work independently once trained.

What the role involves

As a delivery driver, you will be responsible for delivering parcels safely, on time, and professionally in your local area. This is an active role where you will be in and out of the van throughout the day, completing between 90 and 140 stops per day.

Deliveries are mainly to houses, with some flats and businesses. Most parcels are small to medium in size, although some can be heavier.

Your Day Will Look Like This

• Arrive at the depot between 06:30 and 07:30am
• Find your assigned route and load your own parcels into the van
• Loading usually takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on parcel count
• Leave the depot and start your route using the provided device
• Complete 90 to 140 stops per day
• Deliver mainly to houses, with some flats and businesses
• Be in and out of the van throughout the day
• Handle mostly small and medium parcels, with some heavier items
• Return to the depot once your route is finished to de-brief and complete end-of-day procedures

Training

Provided and paid, no previous multi-drop experience is required, as full training is provided. We make sure you are confident before running your own route.

Training Includes

• 2 days classroom training covering systems, delivery device, and procedures
• 2 to 3 days ride‑along training with an experienced Lead Driver or On‑Site Manager
• Training on loading, route management, delivery process, and best practices
• £100 per training day
• Ongoing support even after training is completed

Working pattern

• Routes available 6 to 7 days per week
• Typical delivery time is 6 to 9 hours per day
• Faster and more organised drivers usually finish earlier
• Consistent work available year-round

Things to be aware of

• This is an active job - you will be walking and driving most of the day
• Some days are easier than others, especially while learning
• Good organisation makes the job much easier
• Experience helps, but full training is provided

Payment

• £180 - £250+ per day based on a parcel rate
• Training paid at £100 per day
• Paid weekly

Requirements

• Full UK or EU driving licence
• Must be reliable and punctual
