Working with NordPath

Know the work.
Know what is expected.

Our Logistics operation supports delivery routes and commercial collections across Greater Manchester, extending north to Chorley, and across Merseyside and the Wirral.

The work can involve multiple stops, collection windows, loading and unloading, and following the scanning and handover procedures for the route. Safe driving, careful handling and respectful customer contact are part of the job.

We discuss the location, operating days, vehicle arrangements, rates and payment terms for the opportunity with you before an agreement is made. Tell us about your experience, availability and the areas you can cover so we can assess the fit.

Before you get started

The essentials.

A straightforward overview of what we review before contracting and allocating work.

Ready for the role.

A driving licence valid for the vehicle and work, eligibility to undertake the proposed work in the UK, and a smartphone suitable for the route systems.

Checked and prepared.

Identity, driving licence and relevant eligibility checks form part of onboarding. All NordPath drivers are DBS checked and vetted before undertaking work.

Professional on the road.

Safe driving, care when handling goods, clear communication and attention to instructions. If using your own vehicle, its suitability and insurance requirements must be confirmed for the work.

Vehicle arrangements and any additional carrier requirements depend on the opportunity. We confirm what is required with you before work begins.

The next steps

A clear process.
Before you start.

Our secure onboarding form gathers information for assessing and setting up a subcontract working arrangement.

Submitting the form does not create a contract or guarantee work. Work can begin once the required checks are complete and a suitable opportunity and contract have been agreed.

  1. Complete secure onboarding.

    Follow the form instructions and provide the information and documents requested. Use the onboarding form for identity documents rather than sending them with a general enquiry.

  2. Discuss the opportunity.

    We review your details and discuss relevant work, your availability, the operating area and any outstanding requirements.

  3. Confirm the arrangements.

    Before starting, complete the required checks and contracting steps, and confirm rates, payment terms, vehicle arrangements and the instructions for the work.
