Do you enjoy working as a team as well as alone? Are you passionate about customer service?
Royal Mail are now recruiting Postmen/Postwomen to sort and deliver the mail. If you are able to work to tight deadlines while maintaining a professional and positive image, you are the type of person we’re looking for.
Contract length: Temporary x 11 weeks
Hours of work: 40 hours per week over 5 days Monday to Saturday, 6am to 2pm
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 or by bike. 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.
You need to consider how you will get to work each morning, as public transport may not be available that early in the day.
