Job Description

Every parcel scanned, every drop confirmed: that is the job at a motor spares shop in Newcastle. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

This post is Newcastle-based, with most of your time spent at a motor spares shop. You'll start with a short induction before working on your own.

What you'll actually do

Fill up the vehicle and keep fuel slips for the logbook
Scan parcels on delivery and take a photo or signature
Load parcels in route order from the depot scanning area
Keep your vehicle or bike clean and report faults
Deliver chronic medication to patients' homes and confirm ID

Must-haves

Good sense of direction and map reading
Able to work Saturdays
At least 1 year of driving experience
Valid Code 8 (B) licence, or A licence for motorbike roles

On offer

Branded uniform and rain gear
Company van, bakkie or scooter provided
Fuel card for work trips
Per-drop incentive on busy days

Applying, step by step

Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: certified ID and a recent proof of address plus Code 8 or motorbike licence copy.
Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 5 working days.

How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Newcastle; applications go into our talent pool and shortlisted candidates are introduced directly.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Before you hit apply

For owner-driver jobs, list your vehicle's make, year and load size. They hire the vehicle as much as the driver.
Say you have a smartphone and know delivery apps. Most courier jobs now run through an app and training time is short.
