Kingston, Canada Princess Delivery Service Full time

Seeking couriers for day, evening or all-day schedules.
- no more delivery log/ paperwork (we do that for you)
- bonus pay for volunteering for shifts on short notice, for helping with delivery “surges” and for working holidays
- driver recognition at year-end party (delivery volume milestones, reliability milestones, driver of the year, rookie of the year etc)

**Advantages of working for a local business** compared to a delivery app
- consistent shifts/ schedule.
- your hours are protected for as long as you want to work with us
- less waiting time in between deliveries (many shifts with no waiting time)
- I can write a recommendation letter or take reference calls if you move on to another position
- some cash tips

**Scheduling/ Hours**

Many options for shift times including..

9:30 am to 2, 3 or 4 pm

2 pm to 7 pm

5:30 pm to 10 pm

4 pm to 9 pm

3 pm to 10 pm

5:30 pm to 8 pm

11 am to 7 pm

11 am to 10 pm

10:30 am to 5:30 pm

For part-time drivers, I can work around the set schedule of your main job, including around shift-work/ continental schedules.

For drivers who have regularly changing availability, you can provide your weekly availability every Sunday for the upcoming week.

Casuals/ occasionals. Casual availability couriers also play an important role for us. They can choose to offer their service for occasionally scheduled shifts, for coming on during delivery surges or for assisting with high-paying shopping or long-distance deliveries when it's too busy for us to spare a scheduled driver.

**Pay**

Pay is in delivery fees and drivers also earn tips. Per-hour driver earnings (sum of delivery fees and tips) vary so the noted amounts are per-hour earnings averages. Nonetheless we try to keep the earnings at least **$18-19/ hour **by managing how many drivers are working relative to the volume of deliveries.

Averages vary somewhat depending on by how busy it is, by variance in tips, by the day of the week and by which part of the day the shift is in. Some drivers average somewhat more due to making better tips and by coming on for delivery “surges” and some average less due to the gas consumption of their vehicle.

To earn more you can take an evenings-focused schedule which can increase the average earnings to around **$23/ hour.** There will be periods where evening drivers earn **$30/ hour** for days at a time and occasionally day drivers have **$30/ hour** shifts as well.

Hourly amounts reflect that there is some waiting in between deliveries on some shifts. While in motion, you can count on averaging at least **$27/ hr 4 to 8:30 Friday to Sunday and $22/hr 4 to 8:30 Monday to Thurs and $20/hr** at other times of the day Monday through Sunday. (when there is down time, you are free to do as you wish eg. read or use your phone, and you can “hold” or roam wherever you want to within the downtown vicinity)

Note, delivery fees were raised after last years gas price increases.

**What I’m seeking and is this job a good fit for you?**
- you have a phone with a data plan
- a well-maintained vehicle
- you enjoy driving and customer interactions
- are comfortable and confident behind the wheel (if you are not very comfortable driving; including in traffic, at night (for evening drivers) and in the (occasional) rain, and comfortable parallel parking, this is unfortunately not a good fit for you
- a reasonable amount of patience is required for this to be a good fit. Sometimes the food isn't ready. Sometimes the dispatcher changes your route to accommodate new deliveries. Couriers need to handle cash on some deliveries.
- have work ethic (you don’t “cut corners” for procedures)
- references and delivery experience are assets but no experience required **(Drivers with significant delivery or courier experience are highly valued and may be eligible for a starting bonus or a somewhat higher delivery fee rate)**

SLC, Queen’s and RMC students, and retired individuals are encourages to apply
