Roxanne has been an invaluable member of the Yodel team for an impressive 12 years, during which time she has been a cornerstone of our Client Operations Group. Recently, Roxanne has achieved a newer role, becoming a certified Dangerous Good Safety Advisor, driving best practice internally and further supporting our client base.

With nearly 10,000 colleagues across the country, there is a wide variety of roles and careers available at Yodel, with different skills and experience and plenty of opportunity to develop and grow. Compliance Manager, Jordan Holden, did just that and we spoke to her about her transition from a member of our Recruitment team to ensuring our fresh food clients were packaging and sending their parcels in the best possible way.

On Armed Forces Day and every other day, we are proud of our continued commitment to the military. As a forces friendly employer since 2015, we have partnered with various organisations helping to provide reservists and veterans with careers suited to the talents and expertise gained during their time in the Armed Forces, to move onto the next step in their career. Ross Lawcock, Engineering Manager at our Wednesbury sortation centre is just one of the many colleagues that has joined Yodel after leaving the Armed Forces and gave us a small snippet into his journey.

Here at Yodel, we’re aware that some customers need additional support, so we have trained & supported the team at Webhelp to provide additional help & assistance to vulnerable customers during their delivery experience. Through our Live Chat & voice services, our team have implemented a process that enables agents to identify individuals who may require extra assistance.

After 30 years working in the Telecommunications Sector, Helen Marshall joined us eight years ago and is now our Chief Information Officer. Helen's remit was to deliver IT transformation change for colleagues, customers and clients.

We sat down with Carl Moore, our COO, to discuss his journey in the industry so far, advice he'd give to anyone looking to progress and his biggest learnings during his career.
