    Do you enjoy working as a team as well as alone? Are you passionate about customer service?

    Royal Mail are now recruiting Delivery Postmen and Postwomen who may be required to undertake occasional driving duties.


    Contract length: Temporary for 7 months

    Hours of work: 40 hours per week, 5 days across Monday to Saturday. 6am - 2.15pm Monday to Friday; 6am - 1pm Saturday.

    If you have a full driver’s licence with no more than 6 penalty points and you are able to work to tight deadlines whilst being friendly, professional and customer focused, you are the type of person we’re looking for.

    You will start by sorting the mail in a loud, busy environment, arranging the mail so you can deliver it accurately later on. You will work in all weathers delivering mail on foot, bike or occasionally driving. You will travel 6 to 8 miles each day carrying around 8 heavy mailbags a day (weighing up to 16kg).

    As part of your duty you may be expected to ride a bicycle confidently in all weathers and in heavy traffic

    When driving, you will collect mail from Post Office branches, businesses and post-boxes, transporting it to mail centres, delivery offices and airports.

    You need to consider how you will get to work each morning, as public transport may not be available that early in the day.

    Does this appeal to you? Do you have the drive and dedication we need and want to work for a company that has stood the test of time? If so, this position may be for you. Royal Mail has been around for 350 years and delivers to every address in the UK.

    Royal Mail provides a competitive salary and offers an excellent benefits package.

    If selected for assessment you may be required to attend a Document Checking Session. If your documentation is complete you will then be invited to attend an interview at a later date.

    Please note, once our maximum number of applications has been reached, this vacancy will be withdrawn.
