This job does require very early starts, as shifts often begin around 3:30am. It might not suit those who aren’t naturally early risers.
Some find the workload demanding, especially on busy delivery days with tighter schedules or challenging weather conditions.
Weekend working is required since the rota covers a 5-in-7 rolling system. This means flexibility is essential.
