Yodel creates more than 2,000 roles ahead of ‘festive peak’

UK independent parcel carrier Yodel is to create over 2,000 seasonal roles across different functions in the business.
As the carrier prepares for what is expected to be a busy peak season for the industry, roles are available across Yodel’s 50 locations nationwide. The growth in e-commerce has continued across 2023 with demand for parcel delivery services following suit.
As a result, Yodel’s consumer-to-consumer (C2C) operations have boomed, with parcel volumes growing by 162% in just 12 months, according to a company statement.
This latest recruitment drive also follows a series of infrastructure and fleet investments, including the opening of a new site in Coventry and a £14.5m spend on new tractor units and double decker trailers, boosting capacity to support the business as it scales up operations for the busy pre-Christmas period.
