Christmas recruitment

It’s a long way off but we need to plan early

It may seem a long way off, but the Christmas season will be here before we know it. And we need to plan early to ensure we continue to deliver the best possible service to our customers at our busiest time of year.

Once again, this year we are recruiting thousands of extra people to help permanent colleagues deliver a fantastic Christmas and we need your help.

We’re looking for reliable and hard-working people to work mainly in mail centres, parcel sort centres, and as drivers. Applicants must be over 16 and be able to:

  • Stand for long periods of time
  • Be able to lift up to 11kg
  • Be able to push wheeled containers up to 250 kg.

If you know someone who fits the bill, please ask them to email their details to friendsandfamily@royalmail.com.  

We offer competitive rates of pay and a wide variety of shifts at various locations across the UK.

All applicants will be sent a link to register their details. Online applications for roles will open on 31 August and everyone who has registered their interest will be sent a special Friends & Family link to apply through. Applications for the Friends & Family scheme will then close on 16 September.
