About the role
Pegasus Couriers is recruiting self-employed courier drivers for full-time or flexible delivery routes across Galashiels and the Scottish Borders. Drivers earn £171 to £191 per completed route through the daily rate and applicable performance incentives, with bi-weekly payments under the current contractor terms.
Core delivery areas include Galashiels, Peebles, Kelso, Hawick and Jedburgh, with surrounding routes through Innerleithen and the Tweed Valley. Couriers collect pre-sorted parcels, follow pre-assigned GPS routes, record digital proof of delivery and finish from the final stop without a routine return to the depot.
Drivers can use a suitable own vehicle or select a company van arrangement with no upfront purchase cost and maintenance included. A fuel card supports authorised business mileage, an approved take-home vehicle can reduce depot travel, and full onboarding plus access to dedicated managers gives new drivers route and operational guidance.
Apply if you have held a valid UK driving licence for at least 12 months, have no more than six penalty points and can pass the required DBS and drug-and-alcohol checks. No previous courier experience is required, making this a direct opportunity to gain planned work, daily earning potential, vehicle support and broad coverage across Borders towns and rural communities.
