Canada Post is an exciting place to work! And you can be part of it!

We deliver billions of items to Canadians each year – and you can be a big part of making this happen. As a temporary, on-call delivery agent (also known as a letter carrier), you’ll be the face of Canada Post in your community and make sure customers and businesses get the mail and parcels they’re waiting for.

Does this sound like you? The role of delivery agent would be a great fit if you:

• Enjoy being outside and active year‑round
• Want to work for a great national company
• Would be proud to serve your fellow Canadians

What will you do?

• You’ll start your day in the depot, sorting and preparing the day’s deliveries
• You’ll load and drive a Canada Post postal vehicle

• You’ll then spend most of your day outside, delivering mail and packages by foot or by vehicle to customers on your route
• You’ll return to the depot to unload the day’s incoming mail and packages for later delivery

What must you have?

• A valid Class5 or Class
  
  G driver’s licence with a safe driving record for at least 3 years (driver's abstract required)
• The physical ability to lift mail items weighing up to 22.7kg (50lb) and carry items weighing up to 15.9kg (35lb) regularly throughout the day
• The ability to work in all types of weather
• The availability to be on‑call
• The ability to read, write and speak English and/or French

These help, too!

• Experience in customer service
• Experience making deliveries or working as a driver

In return, we offer:

• Competitive pay
• Extensive classroom and on‑the‑job training about your duties and safety on the job
• Opportunities for permanent employment

Today’s Canada Post is an e‑commerce powerhouse, delivering billions of items every year. We help small businesses grow. We enrich lives in remote communities. We connect Canadians with each other and to the rest of the world. And we do all this by providing residential and business customers with the best possible delivery experience in the country.

We like to promote from within and can offer you a career rather than a job. While, like all of our delivery agents, you’ll start out on a temporary, on‑call basis, you’ll have the opportunity to grow with us and obtain a permanent position … even try out new jobs in different areas of the company.

This position may be considered a Safety Sensitive position and has additional requirements under Canada Post's Substance Use Policy.

Canada Post will represent Canada’s diversity and provide a safe and welcoming workplace that embraces and celebrates our differences. We are committed to employment equity and encourage applications from women, Indigenous People, persons with disabilities and visible minorities.

Disability is defined as a persistent or episodic physical, sensory, or mental health condition and/or functional limitation.
