Summary
Relief Van Driver & Warehouse Assistant (Bank Contract)
Age UK East Sussex | Eastbourne, Newhaven & East Sussex
£12.71 per hour + holiday pay | Flexible shifts
Make every mile matter. Join our friendly Retail Team and play a hands on part in getting donated goods where they need to be—our shops and customers—so we can keep supporting older people across East Sussex.
What you’ll do
No two shifts are the same. One day you’re out on the road, collecting donations and delivering purchases; the next you’re helping in the warehouse to keep things safe, tidy and moving. You’ll drive our vans with care, treat supporters and customers brilliantly, and work closely with assistants and volunteers to get the job done.
Why this role?
• Flexibility that fits: bank contract with shifts that may include early mornings (from 6am), evenings, weekends & Sundays
• Active, rewarding work that keeps you on the move
• Training provided—we’ll show you the ropes and support your development
You’ll bring
• A full, clean UK driving licence and confidence driving vans
• Comfort with physical work—including lifting furniture and moving heavy items
• Great people skills, reliability and pride in doing things safely and well
The essentials
• Pay: £12.71 per hour + holiday pay
• Hours: Zero hours bank contract; shifts can include early mornings, evenings,
Weekends & Sundays
• Locations: Based from Eastbourne or Newhaven, with East Sussex routes as needed
NOTE – This is a physically demanding role that required the ability to lift heavy furniture items and walk long distances at times. Van drivers must be a minimum 25 years old for insurance purposes.
Ready to apply?
If you’re practical, positive and love being on the go, hit Apply and help us keep donations—and impact—moving across East Sussex.
Interviews will take place on an as required basis as potential candidates become available.
