Job Description

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 online shopping grows, we have a number of opportunities for qualified Class 3 / D and Class 5 / G drivers with an Air Brake Endorsement to be part of our team. As a temporary, on-call Mail Service Courier, you’ll join a list of drivers that are available to work locally on short notice, on an equal opportunity basis. You’ll use a postal vehicle to pick up and deliver mail items, and represent Canada Post in a professional manner with everyone you meet.

Does this sound like you? The role of Mail Service Courier would be a great fit if you:

• are a safe driver
• enjoy being behind the wheel
• like working on your own
• can meet time schedules
• take pride in serving your community

Qualifications

What must you have?

• A valid Class 3 / D or Class 5 / G driver’s licence with an Air Brake Endorsement
• A safe driving record for at least 3 years (driver’s abstract required)
• Experience in driving a 5-ton truck or other large vehicles, or in commercial delivery
• The physical ability to lift mail items weighing up to 22.7 kg (50 lb)
• The availability to work on short notice
• The ability to read, write and speak English and/or French

Other Information

Today’s Canada Post - 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 mail service couriers, 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.
