Job Description
Workers Direct is a leading UK recruitment and temporary staffing agency, connecting dedicated Delivery Drivers with reputable logistics and distribution companies across Manchester. Our Trafford Park Manchester M17 hub serves a critical network of warehouses, retail parks, and industrial estates, requiring reliable drivers for same-day, next-day, and scheduled distribution runs.
This role is perfect for drivers seeking an immediate start, consistent work, and the chance to join a dynamic team. We handle the paperwork and vetting, so you can focus on the road. As a specialist in flexible staffing, we understand the demands of the logistics sector and can match you with shifts that fit your schedule, whether you're looking for full-time hours, part-time flexibility, or temporary assignments that could lead to permanent positions.
Key Responsibilities
- Safely and efficiently loading, transporting, and delivering goods to businesses and residences within Trafford Park and the wider Manchester region.
- Conducting pre- and post-trip vehicle inspections, reporting any maintenance issues promptly, and ensuring the vehicle is kept clean and fuelled.
- Providing excellent customer service during deliveries, obtaining signatures, and managing proof of delivery documentation accurately.
- Adhering strictly to planned routes and schedules while navigating Manchester's road networks efficiently and complying with all traffic laws.
- Assisting with basic warehousing duties when required, such as sorting parcels or helping with loading bays, demonstrating flexibility within the logistics chain.
What We're Looking For
- A full, valid UK driving licence (category B) with a clean or near-clean record. Experience with 3.5-tonne vans is highly advantageous.
- Strong geographical knowledge of Trafford Park, Manchester, and the surrounding M60 corridor. Use of a sat-nav or route-planning app is essential.
- Excellent timekeeping, reliability, and a professional, customer-focused attitude. The ability to work independently and manage your day effectively is crucial.
- Physical fitness for manual handling – lifting, carrying, and loading parcels of varying weights safely, in line with health and safety guidelines.

How quickly can I start a Delivery Driver job in Trafford Park Manchester M17?
If you have a valid driving licence and your right-to-work documents are in order, we can often place you within 24-48 hours. Our fast-track compliance process is designed for immediate starts. Many of our Trafford Park clients require drivers urgently, especially for peak seasons and sudden demand surges. For more on finding rapid-start roles, see our guide Jobs Romford: Your Ultimate Guide to Finding Immediate Start Roles.
What type of vehicles will I be driving, and do I need my own van?
The vast majority of our Delivery Driver roles involve company-provided vehicles. You will typically be driving 3.5-tonne vans (category B licence), though some roles may involve smaller car-derived vans or, for qualified drivers, 7.5-tonne lorries (C1). You do not need to own or insure your own vehicle for these temporary assignments. All fuel and running costs are covered by the employer.
Are there opportunities for permanent work or career progression?
Absolutely. Many of our temporary Delivery Driver assignments are temp-to-perm, meaning the client uses the temporary period to assess suitability for a permanent contract. Performing well as a temporary driver is the most common pathway to securing a permanent role with our clients. We also encourage upskilling; for example, obtaining a Forklift Licence can open doors to combined driver/warehouse roles. Learn more about building a career in logistics in our resource Find Your Next Sunderland Job: A Complete Career Guide.
What if I have points on my licence or a minor conviction?
Honesty is crucial. Having points on your licence does not automatically disqualify you. Many clients have specific insurance criteria (e.g., no more than 6 points, no DR/DG convictions within the last 5 years). Declare everything upfront during registration. Our consultants can advise which clients may be more flexible. We employ robust Candidate Screening & Selection processes to ensure a fair and compliant match for both driver and employer.
Can I choose my shifts, and is weekend work available?
Yes, flexibility is a key benefit of working with Workers Direct. We have roles covering early mornings, days, evenings, and nights. Weekend work is often available and typically attracts a higher rate of pay. During registration, you can specify your availability and preferences. Our job-matching system prioritises finding roles that fit your schedule, whether you're looking for full-time hours or part-time flexible shifts.
