Part-time Mail Carrier on a Scooter

Working days

Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday

What will you do?

A job with more freedom than that of a mail carrier? There isn't one. As a mail carrier on a scooter, you work independently and decide for yourself each day what your working hours are. From a birthday card to an important letter, you deliver it all for PostNL in an area you know inside out.

This is what your workday as a mail carrier on a scooter looks like:

• You start by picking up the mail at the depot near you. The mail is ready, and all you have to do is put it in your bags: everything has already been neatly sorted by street and house number. What time you pick up the mail is up to you, as long as it is before 15:00.
• You then do your route on a PostNL scooter, at the times that suit you best. As long as all the mail is in the letterboxes by 18:00 at the latest.

Another great thing about being a mail carrier: You work independently, but never feel alone. You quickly become a familiar face in the neighborhood and build nice contacts with residents and colleagues. And because you are active, you improve your fitness without even noticing!

What do you bring?

Anyone aged 16 or over can become a mail carrier. You are aware that you are the face of PostNL. You therefore work accurately and take a customer-focused approach. In addition:

• You have a valid (scooter) driving licence.
• You are available for at least 7 months.
• You are fit enough to ride a scooter for a few hours and lift mail bags weighing up to 23 kilos.
• You speak Dutch or English well. This is so you can communicate with your colleagues and supervisor.
• You have a smartphone to use during your work.
• You are flexible about covering different neighborhoods. After all, you will not always have a fixed route.
• If you start working with us, you will need a Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag (VOG). Of course, we will reimburse you for it.
