The hand-held computer will also act as your routing system putting your round in the most economical route, telling you which house to go to next.

You should have a strong sense of community and the idea of doing a job that involves flexible working patterns will appeal to you. Royal Mail delivers come rain or shine, so we're looking for people who like being outdoors whatever the weather, you should also be someone who likes the idea of doing a job that will help you keep fit.

As a Delivery Person, you will need the following:

  • Full UK Driving licence, with no more than six points.
  • Must be able to work Saturdays & Sundays
  • Excellent customer service skills.
  • Good level of fitness to meet demands of the role.
  • Excellent organisational skills.
  • Resilience and flexibility.
