European & UK Courier Driver

Join Durham European Couriers

Established in 1996, Durham European Couriers is a trusted specialist in express freight forwarding and urgent logistics. We provide time-critical transport solutions throughout the UK and Europe, delivering everything from pharmaceuticals and telecommunications equipment to oilfield spares and hazardous goods.

We're looking for reliable, professional drivers to join our growing team.

The Role

As a UK & European Courier Driver, you'll be responsible for collecting and delivering time-sensitive freight across the UK and mainland Europe. Every day is different, with a variety of routes, customers and cargo, making this an ideal role for drivers who enjoy travel and working independently.

Key Responsibilities

Safely operate company vehicles in accordance with all road transport regulations.
Complete both UK and European deliveries, including overnight and long-distance journeys.
Load and unload freight safely and securely.
Ensure all delivery, customs and transport documentation is completed accurately.
Maintain excellent communication with customers, customs officials and our operations team.
Represent Durham European Couriers in a professional and courteous manner at all times.

What We're Looking For

Minimum age of 25 years (insurance requirement).
Full UK driving licence (or recognised EU equivalent).
Comfortable working nights and flexible hours when required.
Willing to travel throughout the UK and Europe.
Good organisational skills and attention to detail.
Reliable, punctual and able to work independently.
Previous courier or European driving experience is desirable but not essential, as full customs training can be provided.

What We Offer

£14.50 per hour.
Typical working week of 45-56 hours - Overtime paid after 40 hours
1-3 days off each week, depending on operational requirements.
Full customs and compliance training.
Varied UK and European work with no two days the same.
A supportive, experienced operations team available 24/7.
The opportunity to build a long-term career with an established and respected logistics company.

Apply Today

If you're a dependable driver looking for an exciting role that combines UK and European travel, we'd love to hear from you.

Please send us:

Your CV
A copy of your driving licence
A brief note confirming your availability for night work and European travel

We'll contact suitable applicants to arrange an interview and discuss the role in more detail.
