Parcel Delivery Driver

Are you ready to deliver a difference? Royal Mail is seeking enthusiastic and dedicated individuals for temporary postal and delivery driver positions. If you have a passion for community service and love being on the move, this is the perfect opportunity for you!

Location: Wadebridge

Shift: Working 5 days between Monday – Sunday. Please note this position involves weekend working and it's vital you can commit to this.

Hours: 30 hrs per week with varying start/finish times depending on site. 09:00am – 19:00pm.

About the role

You’ll start your day in the local delivery office, loading the mail for your route, before setting out on foot or in a provided van to complete your parcel/mail round. You’ll be given a hand-held computer device to capture customer signatures for deliveries, with each round usually taking around four hours. The device will also act as your routing system, optimizing your route for efficiency.

About You

Upbeat and self-motivated, you’ll be comfortable working alone as well as part of a team and engaging with different people on your round. You’ll have a strong sense of community, and the flexibility of working patterns will appeal to you.
