Aperçu — adapté à Tesco
Dear Hiring Manager,
Tesco's reputation for putting customers at the heart of every delivery is exactly what draws me to the Customer Delivery Driver role at the Mansfield Jubilee Extra store. I am confident in providing a friendly, reliable service during the advertised evening windows, and I hold a full, clean UK driving licence with proven experience in home delivery and direct customer interaction.
My background in last-mile delivery has seen me complete up to 38 customer drops per shift across a wide geographic area, consistently meeting time-slot commitments and resolving on-the-door queries professionally. I am comfortable working autonomously on the road while staying connected to a base team, and I have experience using in-cab navigation tools to optimise routes efficiently.
