Job Description
As a Delivery Driver/Courier operating in CH14, you will be a vital link in the supply chain, ensuring goods and parcels reach businesses and consumers on time and in perfect condition. This role involves more than just driving; it’s about providing excellent customer service, managing logistics efficiently, and representing both our client companies and Workers-Direct with professionalism. Our clients range from national parcel carriers and local distribution hubs to specialist retail operations, all requiring reliable staff to manage their last-mile delivery operations. The CH14 area, encompassing Ellesmere Port and its surroundings, is a hub for logistics and distribution, offering consistent and varied work for drivers.
Choosing to work through Workers-Direct means you bypass the lengthy application processes often associated with direct hires.

Key Responsibilities
- Safely and efficiently loading, transporting, and delivering parcels and goods to customers and businesses across the CH14 region and surrounding postcodes.
- Planning optimal delivery routes using satellite navigation and handheld devices to meet strict delivery windows and maximise daily efficiency.
- Providing exceptional customer service during deliveries, including handling customer inquiries, obtaining signatures (where required), and managing returns.
- Conducting daily vehicle safety checks, maintaining a clean and presentable company vehicle or van, and reporting any mechanical issues immediately.
- Accurately scanning and tracking parcels using provided electronic POD (Proof of Delivery) systems and completing all necessary delivery paperwork.
What We're Looking For
- A full, valid UK driving licence (Category B) with a clean driving record. Experience driving larger vans (up to 3.5t) is a significant advantage.

- A strong focus on safety, reliability, and time-keeping. You must be physically fit as the role involves manual handling of parcels.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need my own vehicle for this Delivery Driver role in CH14?
For the primary role advertised, a company vehicle or van is typically provided by the client. However, we also advertise some 'own car' courier roles. The job description will always specify this. The majority of our Delivery Driver placements in CH14 involve driving a company-provided vehicle.
How quickly can I start working after applying?
We specialise in immediate starts. For many roles, if you apply in the morning and have the necessary documents (licence, right to work, etc.) ready, we can often place you on a shift the same or the next day. Our process is designed for speed without compromising on essential checks.

Shifts vary by client. Common patterns include early morning starts (6 am - 2 pm), day shifts (9 am - 5 pm), and twilight shifts (4 pm - 12 am). We also have part-time and weekend-only opportunities. We discuss your availability upfront to match you with suitable shifts.
Does Workers-Direct offer any training for new drivers?
While we require you to have a valid licence and basic competency, our clients often provide specific on-the-job training for their delivery systems, handheld scanners, and route planning software. We ensure you are fully briefed on the client's expectations and procedures before you start.
Can temporary driving work lead to a permanent job?
Absolutely. Many of our clients use temporary assignments as a prolonged interview. Demonstrating reliability, efficiency, and a good attitude significantly increases your chances of being offered a permanent contract. We actively facilitate these temp-to-perm transitions.
