Are you someone who is passionate about supporting the community for an iconic brand? We want to hear from you! Doing deliveries with us at Australia Post means freedom, fresh air, and work that moves with you. Kick off your day surrounded by a great bunch of people before heading out to deliver for your local community. Wherever the road takes you, you’re backed by a team that values safety, supports your wellbeing, and gives you room to grow.
As a Senior Relief Postie at our St Leonards Delivery Centre, you’ll hit the ground running and be operating and delivering on on foot utilising a backpack or wheeled trolley. This job requires the person to be flexible with potentially a different delivery area each day and flexible with finishing times. The Relief Postie jumps in to fill the gaps when people are on leave or we are extra busy. This is a permanent full-time position working every week-day, not a casual position.
You'll be
- Starting your day early in the morning sorting both mail and small parcels
- Responsible to cover and deliver to multiple rounds within a territory and no two days are alike
- Loading your vehicle with your deliveries for the day
- Delivering outdoors in all types of weather to deliver to homes and businesses
- Paired up with our experienced Rider Mentors, who are committed to engage and take part in your professional development
About you
- You enjoy walking and are happy to walk long distances delivering mail
- You have your own vehicle to get from the depot out to your deliveries (preferred but not necessary)
- You’re resilient and able to adapt to high volume and pressure
- You’re flexible with working additional hours if required
- You are ok to handle packages that may contain food and/or alcohol
- You have a outstanding memory, excellent attention to detail and can lift up to 16kgs of Mail and Parcels regularly
What’s in it for you?
- $44.11 per hour (includes 15% shift penalties) plus 12% Superannuation.
- Work with a diverse, supportive team where you have opportunity to connect and collaborate every day
- Be at the heart of the Australian and local community, helping to keep families and friends connected or businesses connected with their customers
- Opportunities for training, growth and development in customer experience or other areas of the business
- Discounts and offers on lots of your favourite brands via Post Perks for more cash in your pocket, plus access to other health and wellbeing resources
All walks, one route It takes a lot of us to deliver for every Australian – and it’s important to us that our people behind the parcels reflect the people receiving them. We come from all walks. Different backgrounds, different ages, different genders, different sexualities and different abilities, but we all believe in the same purpose.
We welcome people all ages, genders and backgrounds – including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, people with disability, LGBTQIA+ communities, and refugees. We’re a Disability Confident Recruiter, committed to making our hiring process and workplace inclusive and barrier-free. We’re also working hard to remove bias and build a gender-equitable experience for everyone who joins us.
