Casual/part-time Rural Post Delivery Driver

placeTaupo calendar_month 

We’re on the hunt for a casual/part-time relief driver for our NZ Post RD1 Turangi-Tihoi Rural Postal Service. Translation: you’ll get to cruise stunning country roads, hand out mail like Santa (minus the reindeer), and occasionally dodge an overenthusiastic farm dog.

THE GIG:
  • You need to be Taupo based (not Turangi).
  • We’ll start you off with one regular day per week (Wednesday) plus extra days during school holidays and whenever our regular driver needs a break.
  • Ideally, you will be able to work fulltime (or as much as possible) for the first 2 weeks to master the route.
  • PAY: A cool $200 per day (that’s $23.50 per hour for an 8.5-hour shift to start) – but as you master the route and shave off time, your hourly rate goes up (about $28.50 per hour for a 7 hour day). Work smarter, not harder!
THE DREAM JOB PERKS:
  • You’ll drive our trusty mail ute through some of New Zealand’s most beautiful scenery. Seriously, it’s like a paid road trip… with parcels.
  • Your workday starts at 8 AM in Taupo and wraps up by 5 PM (to start, our current driver of 13 years finishes at 3 PM in Taupo), leaving your evenings free for Netflix, hobbies, or just basking in your postal glory.
  • You’ll deliver letters, packages, and the occasional brochure—for those questionable online purchases.
  • Uniform provided – nothing says "I’ve made it" like an official NZ Post shirt.
ABOUT YOU:
  • Full, clean NZ driver’s license. No rally driving needed, just safe, responsible cruising.
  • Legally allowed to work in NZ. Whether you’re a Kiwi born and bred or a long-term local soaking up the good life, you’re welcome here.
  • Customer-friendly attitude. Rain or shine, nice or grumpy customers, you keep the mail moving with a smile.
  • Reasonably fit. You don’t need to bench press a mailbox, but lifting a few boxes of wine won’t faze you.
  • Clean record. A quick police check and drug/alcohol screening are part of the gig—so keep it tidy.
HOW TO APPLY:
If you’re ready to deliver the goods (literally), send us your CV, or drop us a detailed letter, and two referees who can vouch for your prowess.
  • Email: mtacresltd@gmail.com

Join us – because nothing says “I’ve made it” like being the most beloved person on the rural delivery route! ????
