Ocado Logistics: Become a Local Legend!
Do you crave the thrill of the open road? Do you have a desire to deliver a daily dose of joy to your community? At Ocado Logistics, we're not just looking for drivers; we're seeking everyday heroes to join our league of Customer Service Team Members!
Our colleagues may not always come clothed in a cape, but they steer their trusty van and wield the power to bring joy with each delivery. Snacks stocked, parties hosted and dinners served on time. Join us and become a Local Legend in the making, playing a vital role in our mission to provide outstanding smiles to each of our customers - one delectable delivery at a time.
And fear not, our advanced automated technology is your trusty sidekick, pre-planning your routes and pre-loading your van. This means less faffing and more driving through your day, ensuring you're always ready for your next delivery.
Nottingham calling: your new base awaits…
Exciting news for our newest recruits! If you start your journey with us between August 4th and August 22nd, you'll kick off your training and initial deliveries from our Dordon site. But mark your calendars, because by August 25th, all training and deliveries will transition to our brand-new Nottingham site!
Worried about the change of scenery? Don't be! We believe in supporting our heroes from day one. Any additional travel costs incurred during this transition period will be fully covered by Ocado Logistics! This way, you can focus on mastering your skills and becoming the best Local Legend you can be, without being out of pocket.
Packed with possibilities:
Being a hometown hero deserves epic rewards! Because customers need their groceries at all hours, your shifts will include evenings and weekends, on top of weekdays. But don't worry, these aren't just any shifts – you’ll be paid £13.15 per hour with the opportunity to earn overtime at time and quarter plus Paid Breaks.
Beyond a safe working environment, which is a given for our champions, we offer a shopping list of perks you can tailor to your lifestyle:
* A company pension of up to 7% matched contributions – and even after just 3 months with us
* An enhanced digital health and wellbeing service, that includes virtual GP appointments, for you and any of your dependents
* Hundreds of high street shopping, entertainment and restaurant discounts
* Life insurance coverage that begins on day one of your employment
* 15% off your weekly shop with Ocado.com
* Loads more voluntary benefits such as dental and travel insurance at a discounted price
And it doesn't stop there and neither will your progression – if you suddenly decide that being a defender of deliveries isn’t for you, there’s plenty of opportunity across the business, as 87% of our salaried roles are filled by internal colleagues!
So, what do we need from you?
You don't need any previous experience to join our league, just bring your awesome self and a positive attitude! Our incredible training team will equip you with all the skills you need to become a Local Legend.
However, it goes without saying you will need some essentials…
* Full UK or EU driving licence.
* Minimum of 6 months driving experience (although 12 months driving experience is desirable!).
* Maximum of 6 penalty points.
* No driving disqualifications in the past 5 years.
Some deliveries involve the handling of alcohol products, so you must be over 18 to apply.
As this is a customer-facing role, good communication skills and the ability to deliver joy to our customers goes without saying.
How to apply:
* Fill in an online application - there is no CV needed!
* Our friendly recruitment team will get in touch to conduct an Online Licence Check and Right to Work Checks.
* You will be invited to find out more about the role, either through a site tour in Dordon or Nottingham after 25/08/2025.
* We will run a Disclosure Barring System check (DBS).
* Once all checks are completed, you will be offered the role and your career with Ocado Logistics will start!
