Job description

Self-employed Core Delivery Driver

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. No experience is necessary, 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 between GBP18 - GBP20 per hour (paid per parcel). We are committed to delivering promises as well as parcels, which is why we are enhancing our rates considering mileage and operational costs. This is a real gamechanger.
• Daily & Weekly Payment Options: We offer flexible payment options, allowing you to access earnings from the next day via an app provided by our early access partner, Onsi, or opt for our weekly payment cycle after four weeks of service. Both options provide more regular income for your delivery services.
• Plenty of parcels to deliver: There are ample parcels, with weights up to 15kg, varying in size. You can realistically deliver and collect between 16-25 parcels an hour, six days a week. The more you deliver, the higher your earnings, with opportunities to take on more parcels.
• Freedom and flexibility: Plan your own routes or use our award-winning app with simple instructions and built-in optimization to help you navigate and liaise directly with customers.
• Regular work in the same area: We deliver for major retailers, ensuring a steady flow of parcels. Stay local, familiarize yourself with the roads and customers, and enjoy consistent work.
• Support and development: While enjoying the independence of being self-employed, you'll have access to our expert team and a dedicated Yodel representative for assistance.
