About the role

This is specialist white-glove home delivery — not parcel courier work. Working as a two-person crew (a driver and a driver's mate), you deliver large electrical appliances and furniture into the customer's room of choice, then unpack, assemble and install them. It's a hands-on role suited to people who like being out on the road, working with a partner and finishing each job to a high standard.

What you'll do

  • Run a local multi-drop route from the Bridgend depot as a two-person crew
  • Deliver white goods (washing machines, fridges, cookers) and furniture into the home
  • Unpack, assemble and complete basic appliance installation
  • Provide friendly, careful white-glove service and remove packaging
  • Keep simple delivery records and photos of each completed drop

What you need

  • A full UK manual driving licence (ideally held 3+ years, max 6 points)
  • The right to work in the UK
  • Proof of address
  • A willingness to do physical work and lift heavy items as a pair
  • Your own suitable van (optional — a managed van scheme is available)

Helpful official guidance: Prove your right to work to an employer (GOV.UK) · Set up as self-employed / register with HMRC (GOV.UK) · Check your driving licence information (GOV.UK)

Pay & training

You're paid weekly, direct to your account, against completed routes. As the role is self-employed, you invoice for your work and manage your own tax and National Insurance. Full training — including safe handling, appliance installation and furniture assembly — is provided, with six days of paid training, paid on completion. No previous installation experience is required to apply.

How to apply

Applying takes a few minutes — upload your CV, answer a few quick questions, complete a short identity check and book your meet & greet at the Bridgend depot. You can apply as an individual driver, as a driver's mate, or as a ready-made two-person crew.

Frequently asked questions

What is a 2 man delivery driver job?

A two-person crew safely delivers large items — white goods, appliances and furniture — into the customer's room of choice, then unpacks, installs or assembles them. It's a white-glove service, not doorstep drop-off.

Do I need my own van?

No — a van and equipment can be provided from the depot, so you can start without owning a vehicle. Owner-drivers with a suitable van are also welcome to apply.

Is this self-employed work?

Yes — drivers and crews work on a self-employed basis with weekly pay. You register with HMRC for Self Assessment and can claim allowable business expenses.

Do I need experience or installation qualifications?

Previous delivery experience helps but isn't essential — full training in appliance installation and furniture assembly is provided.

What licence and driving record do I need?

A full UK manual driving licence (ideally held for 3+ years) with no more than 6 penalty points. No HGV/LGV licence is required for standard delivery vans.

Can my friend and I apply together as a crew?

Yes — ready-made two-person crews are welcome, as are individual drivers and drivers' mates whom we can pair up.

How and when do I get paid?

Weekly, against completed routes. As you're self-employed, payment is by invoice and you're responsible for your own tax and National Insurance.

What's the difference between this and parcel courier work?

Parcel/multi-drop courier work is high-volume small packages left at the door. Parcelink is specialist two-person delivery and installation of large electrical and furniture items, delivered into the home with assembly and white-glove care.
