Job Description

Do you enjoy working as a team as well as alone? Are you passionate about customer service?



Royal Mail are now recruiting Postmen/Postwomen to sort and deliver the mail. If you are able to work to tight deadlines while maintaining a professional and positive image, you are the type of person we’re looking for.



Hours of work: 25 per week, 5 days across Monday to Saturday, 09.30am - 14.30pm.



You will start by sorting the mail in a loud, busy environment, arranging the mail so you can deliver it accurately later on. You will work in all weathers delivering mail on foot or by bike. You will travel 6 to 8 miles each day carrying around 8 heavy mailbags a day (weighing up to 16kg).



As part of your duty you may be expected to ride a bicycle confidently in all weathers and in heavy traffic




You need to consider how you will get to work each morning, as public transport may not be available that early in the day.



Does this appeal to you? Do you have the drive and dedication we need and do you want to work for a company that has stood the test of time? If so, this position may be for you. Royal Mail has been around for 350 years and delivers to every address in the UK.



Royal Mail provides a competitive salary and offers an excellent benefits package.



If selected for assessment you may be required to attend a Document Checking Session. If your documentation is complete you will then be invited to attend an interview at a later date.

:hmmmm Work for a company that has stood the test of time?
Excellent benefits? What are these?
25 hours a week?

Well thats not the job I signed up for 4 years ago!
:crazy:
Life sucks losers dry, if you want to fcuk with the eagles you have to learn to fly!

They have not even updated it - professional recruiters at Royal Mail - don't think so.
