Job Description
Self-employed Core Delivery Driver
As one of our Self-Employed Core Delivery Drivers, you'll enjoy freedom, flexibility, and better financial rewards, plus all the support and benefits of being part of our wider Yodel team. No experience is necessary, and the more you deliver, the more you earn.
Why join Yodel?
Competitive rates for each parcel you deliver or collect: Typically, our Delivery Drivers can earn between £18 - £20 per hour (paid per parcel). We deliver promises as well as parcels, so we're raising our game and giving you more reasons to join us. All rates are competitively enhanced, considering business mileage and operational costs.
Daily & Weekly Payment Options: Yodel offers flexible payment options to all Self-Employed delivery drivers. You can access earnings from the next day via an app provided by our early access partner, Onsi, or join the weekly payment cycle, which starts after 4 weeks of completed deliveries. Both options allow for more regular payments.
Plenty of parcels to deliver: There are ample parcels to deliver, providing significant earning opportunities. Parcels weigh up to 15kg and vary in size. You can realistically deliver and collect between 16-25 parcels an hour, depending on the area and your experience, over 6 days a week. The more parcels you deliver, the more you earn.
Freedom and flexibility: You can plan your own route or use our user-friendly app with simple instructions and built-in optimization to help you plan routes and liaise directly with customers.
Regular work in the same area: We deliver for some of the biggest retailers, ensuring a steady flow of parcels. You'll stay local and get to know the roads and customers better.
Support and development: While you'll have the independence of being self-employed, our expert team and Yodel representatives are available to support you and answer your questions.
