Multi Drop Courier (Class C1 Licence)
Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The Multi Drop Courier delivers parcels safely and on time across assigned routes in the United Kingdom. Applicants normally need a valid Class C1 driving licence, Driver Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC), and relevant professional driving experience. A clean or acceptable driving record, good geographical knowledge, physical fitness, and the ability to handle parcels are expected. Candidates should provide dependable customer service, communicate politely, follow health and safety procedures, complete delivery records accurately, and work efficiently to meet service targets. The role requires flexibility, punctuality, safe vehicle operation, and the ability to work independently in a busy, time-sensitive environment. Previous courier, delivery, logistics, or multi-drop experience is advantageous.
Can I work in the UK?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: Warehouse, driver and operations jobs are below degree level and cannot be sponsored; only managers can, and logistics managers only while on the shortage list.
Before you apply: Driver jobs need a licence that counts in that country, and a foreign one may not carry over: Japan's truck-driver visa asks for a class 1 licence, Qatar residents sit a driving test, and Ireland's permit list asks for a CE or C1E truck licence or one it recognises.
Watch for: Logistics managers are on the interim shortage list today, but the July 2026 review did not recommend them from January 2027. Youth schemes are the usual way in for Canadians, Australians and Indians.
