Full job description

Starting as a self-employed Owner Driver in Chelmsford with DPD has never been easier. We give you all you need. From your own van, the best tech in the business and all the training to get you out on the road.

At DPD, we go above and beyond for our customers. Bringing our van-do attitude every day. Delivering parcels on time, all the time. We’re part of the community, delivering cheer to our customers. And with your van-do attitude, you’ll fit right in.

When you join us, you can also choose from any of our industry leading vehicles and benefit from the latest electric innovations. You can even use your own van if you have one – and we’ll pay for the addition of the famous DPD livery. Oh, and your uniform is on us too. 

You will quickly be up and running. There’s no experience needed as we’ll give you full training to get you road-ready in no time. All you will need is a valid UK driver’s licence. 

There are thousands of reasons to join us, here’s a few to get you started:

  • Lots of work - with online shopping growing every day, you’ll be making between 90-120 stops a day and get paid for every collection and delivery
  • Branded vehicle - to make your deliveries
  • Flexible working - work five days a week to suit your lifestyle, including a Saturday or Sunday. As we’re open seven days a week, there are opportunities to work longer to boost your earnings
  • No experience needed - we provide full training, so you can quickly get to grips with everything. We also offer financial support while you train
  • Ongoing support - so you can focus on maximising your earnings.
  • Latest tech – our handheld tech will guide you and help you plan the best route to make your deliveries
