The basics skills of working as a same day courier or a delivery driver aren't hard to pick up, but a good candidate for a job in this industry will definitely need the following attributes. Reliability, attention to detail, attention to customer service levels, good geographical knowledge of the local an long distant locations they'll be carrying out deliveries to and, of course, a clean driving licence, are generally considered basic conditions for working in this industry

Becoming a courier delivery driver will give you freedom and flexibility, this is very appealing to some people. Some delivery driver positions require at least six months’ experience and a driving licence with NO points.

Some employers will be very sensitive about how you drive in their company vehicles. Bad manners, aggressive driving and swearing at other drivers will not be tolerated

Courier work can cover just cities, other jobs will require knowledge of the entire UK without using a Sat Nav. Some roles will require a minimum age. Due to insurance reasons, 25 is the minimum age at Greg Paulson Same Day Couriers Ltd. An in-depth CRB (Criminal Records Board) background check is required.
