The Medium Rigid (MR) Courier delivers parcels and freight safely and on schedule using a medium rigid vehicle. Candidates generally need a current Australian MR driver’s licence, a safe driving record, reliable attendance, and the ability to pass required background, medical, and driving checks. The role involves loading and unloading shipments, completing delivery documentation, using handheld technology, planning routes, and providing professional customer service. Physical fitness is important because the work may involve lifting, carrying, and frequent entry and exit from the vehicle. FedEx expects candidates to follow road, workplace health and safety, security, and service procedures while working independently and meeting delivery targets.
