Become a Courier Driver
The flexibility of being a courier driver extends to which jobs you choose to take on. If the timings don’t work for you, you don’t have to accept the job. Being a Ik Fast Track Courier driver is the perfect way to achieve the work-life balance you’re striving for, whatever that looks like for you.
A courier driver job is ideal for anyone looking to plan their work around their other commitments, rather than the other way around. It allows you to do the school run, fit in a few hours of studying, head to the gym, or pursue other passions.
Plus, as a preferred driver you will get paid weekly at a competitive rate.
While most of our courier drivers are self-employed, they still receive a great deal of support from both the local branches and our central support centre. If they have any questions about payment, procedure, or opportunities, we’re just a phone call away. No driver is left to figure things out for themselves.

Looking to the long term, being a courier driver is a role that offers stability. There will always be a need for fast yet reliable same day delivery, from both commercial and domestic clients.

Time management, customer care and adaptability are just some of the transferable skills you’ll be able to develop.
