Why is Evri recruiting now?
The weeks from Black Friday to Christmas are the company's busiest. Evri, which handles more than one billion parcels a year, expects to move over four million parcels a day at the peak. Local papers from Glasgow to Carlisle reported the same drive on 9 November, showing it is a nationwide push rather than a single depot.

How much can an Evri courier earn?
Couriers are paid per parcel delivered. Evri says new couriers can make more than £100 for each delivery day, and the seasonal bonus is added on top. Once a round is finished, the rest of the day is free, which is why the work is popular with parents, students and people with another job.

- Daily fuel support payments
- Perks via Onsi, such as getting part of your pay early, GP appointments and shop discounts
