So it is crucial to us.

Providing outstanding service is at the heart of the ParcelHero® philosophy, we
want to make a real difference to our customers.

We believe in understanding our customers and offering exceptional,
personalised customer care. We are experts so our customers don’t need to be.

3. Putting People First

people like people, and respecting employees, suppliers and most importantly
customers. From the top down and back again. We believe that a commitment to

4. Listen to what people are saying. Welcome Feedback

At ParcelHero® we're always listening and we're always learning. That’s why feedback is
so important to us, it helps us continually improve our service and we engage both
customers and staff in the process of constant evolution and improvement.

When we receive a positive customer review, the agent that handled the case is always
congratulated. When we get negative feedback, we always investigate, look at what we
could have done better, learn, solve and evolve.

Our teams are incentivised, because we track reviews by case handler, and generously
reward success. And we incentivise staff for the best ideas on our suggestions board.
We call it listening, learning… then earning.

5. Inform. Educate. Innovate

At ParcelHero® we believe in keeping our customers informed. We know that parcel
delivery in the 21st century is a highly complex global operation, and that our customers
want to send parcels, cheaply, efficiently and simply. So we believe in providing every
helping hand we can, on everything from customs navigation to how to package a parcel.
We educate to empower and are committed to technological innovation.

transparent in everything we do. Our customer service team are based here in the UK
and a highly trained, we provide real-time tracking on every shipment, we automatically

you login. We make booking easy and share our expertise on our help pages, blog and
downloadable customer guides.

We call it the ParcelHero® difference, and it means you can trust us to deliver.

6. Work Hard, Play Hard

At ParcelHero® we love what we do. As passionate as we are about parcel delivery, when
works over, or it's time for a break, we also love to have fun.

So our breakout area always has something going on, whether it's a chin wag over lunch,
people just kicking back, the ParcelHero® pool sharks hustling away on the world's longest
running pool tournament, or the ‘athletes’ in the team playing serious semi-pro football.

We love looking after our staff, and they love looking after our customers.
That's what we call a winning team.
