Yodel said the recruitment drive is in response to the "ever-growing demand" for online retail, which has increased "dramatically" over the last 18 months.

Mike Hancox, CEO of Yodel, said: “We expect the ongoing growth in online retail will continue in the winter months as consumers look to finalise their Black Friday and Christmas shopping for friends, family and loved ones as conveniently as possible.

“There’s a huge breadth of roles available, with many presenting an opportunity to grow into long-term careers. By joining Yodel you’ll become part of a nationwide family and have options to work either full or part-time to suit your lifestyle.”
