Here at the Post Office, we’re steeped in tradition, but we’re going places. Supported by our network of depots and vehicles:
Post Office’s Cash and Valuables in Transit division (CViT) collect & deliver cash, coin, and high value items 24 hours a day.

As a Cash Carrying Crew member, you will be working in a security environment with the responsibility of delivering and collecting of value items in a timely, safe, secure, and compliant way. You’ll be undertaking the truly valuable role of providing a high value delivery and collection service, across our corporate and retail functions.

Working from a secure location, either independently or as part of a team, this role offers you the exciting opportunity to be the face of the Post Office; interacting with customers from both Post Office and external organisations.

What’s more, is we will support you to build and develop a long and fulfilling career; through our evolving learning and development opportunities. Whether that’s progressing to a management role, or learning a new skill, to expand your career across the Post Office network.

You will be an experienced driver with a valid UK driving licence. Along with this, you will also:

• Have previous experience in customer service, ideally with previous multi drop delivery experience
• Possess first-class communication skills with the ability to be collaborative, adaptive to new processes and ways of working quickly and as required.
• GCSE English (grade D +) or equivalent. (Applicants who are unable to provide evidence of qualification in English, will need to pass a written English assessment during the recruitment process.)
• Ensure you drive in line with legal requirements when on the road, including proper use of a digital tachograph.
• A current C1 licence and SIA licence would also be beneficial but not essential.

(For compliance regulations you must hold a SIA licence before starting the role. This will be applied by the company, if you do not already hold one.)

Please note, this role requires you to work in a high security environment. If successful at interview, you can typically expect to have a waiting period of up to 12 weeks; while your application goes through our screening process (which includes 5 years referencing). Prior to submitting your application, please ensure your CV details all activity over the past 5 years including any gaps in employment, as this will significantly help speed up the recruitment process.
