A fantastic opportunity has arisen for self-employed delivery van drivers to work with our client, delivering parcels from the world's leading online retailer.

Your Time at Work
Working as a delivery driver you will be driving a van loaded with parcels and will be required to deliver to a number of locations in your allocated area. This is a Delivery Driver role where you'll spend the majority of your day out on the road - so a passion for driving is a plus!

The number of deliveries each day will range from 130 to 180 depending on whether you are doing small or large route.

Your vehicle will be pre-loaded and the routes are condensed so you will have a high number of deliveries in a small area. For example, you could have 20 + drops on 1 housing estate.

Your typical day will be 9 hours.

Parcels will be a variety of shapes and sizes but we do not anticipate any parcels to weigh more than 25kg.

Once you start you will be provided with training. This includes 2 days classroom, 2 days of shadowing and then 4 days on the road with a mentoring system in place to monitor performance and help you achieve your bonus.

You will be available to work 5 days to include a weekend day (6 days are available if you want more).

You will hold a full UK driving licence, be at least 18 years of age for insurance purposes and have no more than 6 penalty points for minor offenses.

You will be comfortable in driving a transit size vehicle and ideally have a minimum of 6 months experience in driving as a job or doing deliveries.

Before you start you will be required to do a basic DBS check (basic background check) and also pass a D & A (Drug & alcohol test).
