Think you know DHL? Think again! We're not just about delivering parcels. DHL Supply Chain is the world's leading logistics company and one of our fascinating contracts involves us running warehouses inside of prisons.

At DHL, we manage the picking, packing and distribution of these orders.

We're now looking for an Order Distributor who will play an integral role in the prisoners' lives, working with a diverse team to support their rehabilitation.
