We’re looking for someone to take the wheel and own a designated local route. With around 40–50 stops a day, you’ll be the ultimate problem‑solver, navigating your community and making life easier for our customers. Your role is vital in providing a service that genuinely makes a difference to our customers.

If you’re someone who loves autonomy, stays tech‑savvy and enjoys being out in the real world rather than stuck behind a screen, this is your lane.

• Drive the Vibe: Get behind the wheel of a 7.5‑tonne vehicle, cruising local routes while keeping it safe, professional and efficient.
• Master the Tech: Use the industry‑leading Saturn handheld device for tracking progress, managing deliveries and staying ahead of the game.
• The Main Character Energy: Be the friendly face our customers see every day. Whether it’s a quick “hello” or a helpful drop‑off, your energy defines the DPD experience.
• The Hustle: Load and unload parcels using sack barrows and hand trucks to handle heavy lifting safely. Think of it as a paid workout while you’re on the move.

• Essentials: A valid 7.5‑tonne (C1) licence and DQC/CPC accreditation.
• Experience: Ideally 6 months recent driving experience handling 7.5‑tonne vehicles.
• Vibe: You’re professional, approachable and thrive in a fast‑paced environment.
• Fitness: You’re physically active and comfortable with the lifting involved in the job.
• Values: You care about doing a good job and treat customers and colleagues with respect.
