A COURIER company with a base in Woodley is looking for additional staff to meet demand.

CitySprint, which works out of Headley Road East, is taking on 300 couriers across the UK, with a focus on drivers of small and large vans, as well as zero-emission vehicles in larger areas.

They will join a pool of more than 2,500 vans, bikes and cars already in use. In addition, CitySprint is looking to employ drivers for their electric vehicles as they continue to expand their overall electric vehicle fleet to over 200 by the end of 2023.

The firm says it has seen significant uplifts in key logistics sectors causing the need to expand the workforce.

Mark Footman, chief operating officer at CitySprint, said: “It’s been another fruitful year for CitySprint, as the business has seen substantial growth in several key sectors. From winning an array of new clients to the group acquiring London-based same-day courier company, Absolutely.

“Despite a commendable 3.4 million deliveries in the past year, we want to strengthen our fleet further to ensure we can continue providing the best possible service over the busy summer months. We’re excited to welcome new suppliers on board, to help us deliver on these promises and stay ahead of our competitors, as the business grows.”
