Job Description
Temp Postal Delivery Driver
Location: Hassocks Delivery Office
Working hours: 08.00-15.00 (working hours may vary)
Shifts: Monday to Saturday (5-6 shifts per week)
Hourly Rate: 13.37
Duration: ASAP start / six-month assignment

About the role
You'll start your day for an hour or so in the local delivery office, sorting the mail for your route, before either taking out your van to complete your round or making your way out on foot. You'll each be given a hand-held computer device to capture customer signatures for deliveries and the round will take around four hours to complete. 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.

About You
Upbeat and self-motivated, you'll be as happy working alone as you will be working as part of a team and getting to know the different people on your round. You'll have a strong sense of community and the idea of doing a job that involves flexible working patterns will appeal to you.
We deliver parcels come rain or shine, so we're looking for people who like being outdoors whatever the weather, you'll also be someone who likes the idea of doing a job that will help you keep fit.
Some experience in a customer facing role would be ideal.

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 your induction.
Routes may be on foot rather than in a van and may include either parcels, post or a mixture of both.
Saturdays are busy for the depot, therefore there must be a willingness to work regular Saturdays, for which you will be given a day off in the week where required.
