About the Role


Made in Stoke-on-Trent. Moulded by you. Become a Customer Service Team Member with Ocado Logistics. For generations, people in Stoke-on-Trent have built a reputation for doing things properly. We're bringing that same spirit to our brand-new Ocado Logistics site, offering stable work, planned shifts, supportive teams, and opportunities to build a long-term career.


As a Customer Service Team Member (what we call our Customer Delivery Drivers), you'll be one of the people local customers rely on. From weekly shops and family dinners to those last-minute essentials, you'll help keep homes across the community moving.


You'll take to the road in one of our delivery vans, follow a pre-planned route, and deliver each order with a smile. Our technology takes care of the route planning and your van will be loaded ready for you, so you can focus on driving safely, providing great service, and doing the job well.



Your Stoke Journey Starts Here



  • If you join us between 12th October 2026 and 2nd November 2026, you'll complete your training and initial deliveries from one of our two already established sites, either Dordon & Nottingham.

  • From 9th November 2026, all training and deliveries will move to our brand-new Stoke-on-Trent site.

  • Ocado Logistics will cover any extra travel costs during the transition and we'll give you an hour at the start and end of your shifts during training as travel time, allowing you to learn the role and build your confidence without being left out of pocket.



Remuneration and Benefits


You'll be paid £13.66 per hour, with the opportunity to earn overtime at time and a quarter. Your breaks are paid too. You will also receive a range of benefits, including:



  • A company pension with matched contributions of up to 7%, available after three months with us

  • An enhanced digital health and wellbeing service, including virtual GP appointments for you and your dependants

  • Hundreds of discounts across high-street shops, restaurants, and entertainment

  • Life insurance cover from your first day of employment

  • 15% off your weekly shop with Ocado.com

  • Optional benefits such as dental and travel insurance, available at discounted rates



What We Need From You


You don't need previous delivery experience. Our training team will provide the knowledge, skills, and support you need to feel confident in the role.


This is an active, physical job. You could deliver up to a tonne of shopping each week, carrying orders from your van to customers’ doors, including flats and properties with stairs.


You'll spend much of your day working independently, so reliability and pride in providing good service are essential. You will represent Ocado Logistics while delivering shopping for our retail partners, so strong communication skills and a friendly, helpful approach are important.


Shifts can start as early as 5:30am and finish as late as midnight, so reliable transportation to and from the Stoke site is necessary.


Additional requirements include:



  • A full UK or EU driving licence

  • At least twelve months' driving experience

  • No more than six penalty points on your licence

  • No driving disqualifications within the past five years

  • Be aged 18 or over, as some deliveries include alcohol products



Application Process


Our application process is straightforward and requires no CV:



  • Complete our short online application

  • Our recruitment team will contact you for an online driving licence check and Right to Work checks

  • You will be invited to learn more about the role, including a site tour at your chosen training location

  • We'll complete a DBS check

  • Once all checks are complete, your offer will be confirmed, and we will help you prepare for your first day



Details



  • Contract type: Permanent

  • Contracted hours: 37.5 hours per week, including paid breaks

  • Contracted days: Any five days out of seven, with detailed scheduling during pre-boarding

  • Shift length: 7.5-hour shifts, including paid breaks

  • Pay schedule: Paid every four weeks (lunar basis)



Additional Information


As part of Ocado Group, we're an Armed Forces Covenant employer and hold Silver status in the Ministry of Defence Employer Recognition Scheme. We are committed to creating an inclusive and accessible workplace where everyone can contribute, develop, and succeed.


Whatever your background, you'll find a supportive team and the opportunity to build something lasting at Ocado Logistics.
