As one of our Self-Employed Core Delivery Drivers, you'll enjoy freedom, flexibility, and better financial rewards, along with 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 business mileage and operational costs.
• Daily & Weekly Payment Options: We offer flexible payment options, allowing you to access earnings from the next day via our app with Onsi, or join our weekly payment cycle after four weeks of service.

Additional benefits include partner discounts (e.g., Naked Wines, Beer Hawk, Hello Fresh), health and wellbeing programs, and opportunities to grow your business through the volume of parcels.
