Newtown, United Kingdom DPD Group UK Full time

**Contract**:Permanent Full Time / 40 hours per week
- **Location**:DPD Newtown - Newtown, Powys SY16 1DZ
- **Hourly Rate**: £11.44ph - Overtime paid at enhanced rates
- **Days of Work**: 5 from 7 to include weekends

Join us on our journey as we aim to be the UK’s most sustainable delivery company, whilst ensuring our customers continue to receive a world class service. As a collection and delivery driver you represent the business every day and are vital to providing a service that genuinely makes a difference to our customers.

Some previous driving experience would be preferred but driving experience is not an essential requirement to join our team. Just bring yourself and a positive attitude, plus a full UK driving licence held for 12 months or more, and we will do the rest

DPD are passionate about creating an environment that is open, ethical, inclusive and socially responsible. We understand the needs of our employees so we offer stability through permanent contracts, guaranteed hours and the ability to increase your earnings with overtime paid at premium rates. You can plan ahead whilst also building a career with us.

Along with job security, the tools to do the job and a competitive salary, you’ll receive fantastic benefits starting on day one, including never working on your birthday ever again

DPD is a Valuable 500 company and a Disability Confident Employer

Being a collections and delivery driver for DPD you’ll often be the first point of contact that our customers have with us, so providing a great service when you hand over or collect a parcel is just as important as delivering the parcel on time.

Your shift will start at the depot where you’ll be responsible for loading your parcels onto your van. We’ll give you a delivery schedule for the day and then you’re on the road, driving our 3.5 tonne van and making multi-drop collections and deliveries around the area.
