As a Parcel Sorting Officer, you’ll work in our Mail & Parcel Processing Centre as part of a tight-knit team making sure our customers’ parcels get where they need to go - fast. It’s hands-on, physical work that keeps you moving and makes a real difference every day.

- 1:30pm-9:21pm - Monday to Friday
- 6:00pm-1:21am - Monday to Friday
What you’ll be doing
- Sorting and processing letters, parcels, and Express Post items so our automated equipment can get them exactly where they need to go
- Loading and unloading mail bags, trays, containers and metal cages (Unit Loading Devices)
- Operating pallet jacks and other shifting equipment to keep things moving
- Keeping yourself and those around you safe and well
What you bring
- You’re physically fit and ready to lift up to 16kg repeatedly
- You’ve got a sharp eye for detail and a great memory
- You’re flexible with hours and love being part of a team
- Experience with pallet jacks, stackers or a forklift? Awesome - but not essential
How we’ll deliver for you
- 12% superannuation + shift penalties where applicable
- Career pathways with one of Australia’s most trusted brands
- Post Perks – rewards, recognition, and wellbeing support
- A workplace where you can be yourself and feel like you belong

We want to make sure this role is the right fit for you — and that you feel confident stepping into it. That’s why we’ll be sharing more information with you to provide a clear picture of the job and what it’s like to work with us. If you progress, you’ll also be invited to attend engagement centres in late June, where you’ll meet our team, learn more about the role, and show us how you would bring to life our TIES values, helping us deliver to our customers in a supportive, hands-on environment.
