Our Customer Delivery Driver rate of pay starts from £13.35 an hour; this increases to £14.56 for stores inside the M25. Additional payments may also apply depending on location.
It’s our policy to offer new colleagues joining us a minimum of 16 guaranteed hours each week, but if you’d like to work fewer hours (to a minimum of 12), we have opportunities for this too and would still love to hear from you.
The table shows the periods of time in the week we’d like you to be available to work — the availability windows. We will schedule your contracted hours within these times, and you’ll have 3 weeks’ notice of exactly when your shifts will be. We are happy to support flexibility for our colleagues; therefore, if the times you are available to work match closely but not exactly to the times we are advertising, we’d still love to hear from you.

Customers are at the heart of everything we do.
As the face of Tesco out on the road, we deliver all the way from Lands’ End to John O’Groats. Our Customer Delivery Drivers get the opportunity to meet and talk to different customers in their homes every day. That’s why this role is about much more than just driving: it's about helping others and delivering great service, with a smile.
It’s hands-on, physical, and full of variety. No two shifts are ever the same, and our customers look for help in all kinds of different ways. For most of the day, you’ll feel like your own boss, delivering to your customers, but there is always a team of Managers and colleagues back at base ready to support you when you need them.
So whether you are looking for flexibility to suit your current lifestyle, job stability, or an opportunity to change career direction, everyone is welcome at Tesco.
