A Delivery Rider is responsible for transporting goods, such as food, parcels, or retail items, from businesses to customers using a bicycle, motorbike, or scooter. This role involves navigating local routes efficiently, ensuring timely and accurate deliveries, and maintaining a high level of customer service.

Physical fitness, time management, and the ability to work independently are key traits for success in this position. The job often requires flexibility to work evenings, weekends, and during peak delivery times.
