Description

Postal Delivery Driver


First Call Contract Services has a long association recruiting for Royal Mail and we are now recruiting for people who believe they have the skills and attributes for a role as a postal delivery worker.

Royal Mail is one of the UK's best-loved brands. Every day, bringing letters and parcels to people around the country; something that communities across the UK rely on. With 500 years of history, people wear the royal mail badge with pride. Now, we want you to wear it too.

Postal workers are part of the community.


We don't just deliver post:
we deliver a promise. No matter the location, we make it to that doorstep - and we make our customers smile. It might seem like a little thing but, together, we have a big impact.


About the role
From scorching summer days to the depths of winter, our postal workers play a vital role, delivering the mail. It's a physically demanding job - but it's one the nation relies on.


Here, you will:

  • Work hours between the hours of 08:00 and 17:00 (hours can vary day to day)
  • Cover periods of leave for a fixed number of routes (so you'll need to be a bit flexible)
  • Sort the mail for your route
  • Check your vehicle and join a colleague for your round
  • Spend between four and six hours delivering mail outdoors

About you

  • Upbeat and selfmotivated: _You'll be happy working solo as well as part of a team._
  • Love of the outdoors: _From rural farms to city apartments, corner shops to business parks, whatever the weather (and, this being Britain, it can get quite extreme) we're there, six days a week. That means you'll need to be happy being out and about._
  • Good level of fitness: _There's up to six hours per day of walking, so you should relish a role that keeps you fit._
  • Excellent organisation: _You will need to be able to plan your round and make sure you complete all your deliveries in good time._
  • Resilience: _You will be able to work under pressure and with the public, acting as a friendly face that people know and trust._
  • Flexibility: _You will be working in different areas covering your colleagues' holidays, so you might need to adjust your working hours to match your round._

Driving licence requirements


A full UK manual driving licence (in your current UK address), with no more than six penalty points is essential, but a clean licence is preferred.

Please note you will be required to show this at assessment.


Shift patterns

  • Full time 40 hours per week plus overtime
  • Working between the hours of 08:00 and 17:00
- _Monday until Saturday available_

£13.37 per hour + overtime
