Join Our Team as a Customer Service Team Member at Ocado Logistics!Are you ready to be part of something special? At Ocado Logistics, we're bringing the proud spirit of Stoke-on-Trent to life with our brand-new site. Here, you'll find stable work, planned shifts, and a supportive team that's dedicated to helping you build a long-term career.

As a Customer Service Team Member (or what we like to call our Customer Delivery Drivers), you'll play a vital role in your community. From weekly grocery runs to those last-minute essentials, you'll be the friendly face that keeps homes moving.
Your Stoke Journey Starts HereJoin us between 12th October 2026 and 2nd November 2026, and you'll kick off your training and initial deliveries from one of our established sites in Dordon or Nottingham. Starting 9th November 2026, all training and deliveries will shift to our exciting new Stoke-on-Trent location.
We understand that this temporary change may require some extra travel, so we've got you covered! Ocado Logistics will reimburse any additional travel costs during your transition, plus you'll receive an hour at the start and end of your shifts during training as travel time. This way, you can focus on learning the ropes and building your confidence without any financial worries.
Proper Work. Proper Rewards.We believe in rewarding hard work! You'll earn £13.66 per hour, with opportunities for overtime at time and a quarter. Plus, your breaks are paid! Here's what else you can look forward to:
A company pension with matched contributions of up to 7%, available after three months.
An enhanced digital health and wellbeing service, including virtual GP appointments for you and your dependants.
Access to hundreds of discounts across high-street shops, restaurants, and entertainment.
Life insurance cover from your first day.
15% off your weekly shop with Ocado.com.
Optional benefits like dental and travel insurance at discounted rates.

What Do We Need From You?No previous delivery experience? No problem! Our training team will equip you with all the knowledge and skills you need to thrive in this role.
This is an active, physical job where 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 work independently, so reliability and a commitment to excellent service are key. Strong communication skills and a friendly demeanor are essential as you represent Ocado Logistics while delivering for our retail partners.
Shifts can start as early as 5:30 AM and finish as late as midnight, so you'll need to ensure you can travel to and from the Stoke site reliably during these hours.
Additionally, you'll need:
A full UK or EU driving licence.
At least twelve months of driving experience.
No more than six penalty points on your licence.
No driving disqualifications within the past five years.
To be aged 18 or over, as some deliveries include alcohol products.

Complete our short online application.
Our recruitment team will reach out to conduct an online driving licence check and Right to Work checks.
You'll be invited to learn more about the role, including a site tour at your chosen training location.
A DBS check will be completed.
Once all checks are done, we'll confirm your offer and help you prepare for your first day!
