Our Customer Delivery Driver rate of pay starts from £14.18 an hour; this increases to £15.45 for stores inside the M25. Additional payments may also apply depending on location.

It’s our policy to offer new colleagues a minimum of 16 guaranteed hours each week, but if you’d like to work fewer hours (down to a minimum of 12) we have opportunities for this too and would still love to hear from you.

We would like you to be available during the periods listed above. We will schedule your contracted hours within these windows and give you three weeks’ notice of your shift times. We support flexibility, so if the times you’re available are close but not exactly the advertised windows, we’d still love to hear from you.

Customers are at the heart of everything we do.

As the face of Tesco out on the road, we deliver all the way from Land’s End to John O’Groats. Our Customer Delivery Drivers meet and talk to different customers in their homes every day. This role is about more than just driving: it’s about helping others and delivering great service with a smile.

It’s hands‑on, physical and full of variety. No two shifts are ever the same. For most of the day you’ll feel like your own boss, delivering to your customers, while a team of Managers and colleagues back at base supports you when you need them.

So whether you are looking for flexibility to suit your current lifestyle, job stability or an opportunity to change careers, everyone is welcome at Tesco.
