Are you ready to make a difference?
Royal Mail is looking for enthusiastic and dedicated individuals to join us as flexible (temporary) postal delivery drivers.
If you have a passion for community service and love being on the move, this is the perfect opportunity for you!
Whether you're seeking a new challenge or looking to work in a dynamic and meaningful environment, we’d love to hear from you.
What We Offer
· Active Work Environment: No two days are the same.
· A job you can be proud of: Be part of a service that connects people and businesses every day.
· Competitive Pay: Enjoy competitive rates and the flexibility to fit work around your lifestyle.
What We’re Looking For
· Driving Licence : Full, manual UK driving licence with no more than 6 points – you’ll be driving a Royal Mail van as part of your round.
· Physical Fitness : Be prepared to walk 20,000 steps a day, get in and out of your van regularly, and carry a mailbag weighing up to 16kg.
· Flexibility: Shifts can vary, so we need team players who can adapt at short notice.
Your Role
As a Post Person with Driving, you’ll be the face of Royal Mail in your community, ensuring letters and parcels are delivered come rain or shine. You’ll drive round your delivery area, completing parts of your route on foot, providing exceptional service and ensuring every item reaches its destination safely.
You’re expected to securely deliver all items on your route, including handling and delivering election materials and certain items (such as food products or alcohol) in line with Royal Mail business standards.
This role is more than just a job; it’s a vital service at the heart of every neighbourhood. If you take pride in your work and are happy to work flexibly, we want to hear from you.
Important to Know
While large parts of the role involves walking, driving a Royal Mail delivery van is also a key requirement. This is a great opportunity for those who enjoy being outdoors and staying active throughout the day. Please note: you’ll be required to pass a driving assessment when you start.
