There’s parcel delivery. And then there’s HIVED. We’re building the most-loved delivery network at scale, powered entirely by electricity, for a delivery experience you can actually look forward to: fast, reliable and uncomplicated.
Parcel delivery currently relies on fossil-fuel powered vans for the most part — and they pollute the air we breathe, emit large amounts of CO₂ and congest our cities. At the same time, customer service is notoriously poor, unethical business practices are rampant, and the technology is outdated. HIVED offers an alternative: 100% emission-free parcel delivery.
The company's technology is so efficient, they can match – or sometimes even be cheaper – than the current high-emission carriers. Its service is for individuals, SMEs and corporates. HIVED fundamentally sets itself apart from their larger competitors by ensuring deliveries are 100% emission free, which will be a significant advantage for it as the UK is witnessing a green economic boom in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
The industry's expansion is expected to grow by $141.05 bn globally by 2025, which will undoubtedly be underpinned by a push towards sustainability. HIVED is well positioned to capitalise on this, particularly if it can maintain its current high standards and further strategic investment of funds.

At HIVED, people are judged based on their output and not on their resume. In a multi-facetted, operations-heavy business like ours it is extremely rewarding to see people from all walks of life and levels of seniority thrive in new roles, re-discover themselves and get the recognition they deserve.

Great work is recognised

My colleagues are not only super intelligent but also really nice people all round (we leave our ego's at the door) which makes working at HIVED even more enjoyable. There are people from all kinds of backgrounds contributing in so many different ways. HIVED also has done a great job of spotting talent within the team itself as evident with the numerous internal promotions across departments.

Whilst working at HIVED can be challenging and hard at times the supportive nature of the management team means that no challenge is insurmountable. My own fantastic manager aside I've had countless invaluable hours with the CEO and senior management talking through issues and problem solving showing how much they care and want to support the team.

One of the amazing things about HIVED is how instilled the values are and how our ethos and ethics drives our decision making. There is total commitment to being zero emissions and looking after our people even if it means making life harder for ourselves, our dedication to our values means the company is never feeling lost or lacking direction.

Something HIVED does incredibly is giving everyone autonomy and responsibility over our own work - we’re trusted to get our work done in the best way we see fit. I feel empowered to make my own decisions and still be supported by my team when I need it.

Autonomy
Aug 2022
At HIVED I feel like I’m making a real dent in the broken logistics industry - the biggest proof of this is the genuine and heartfelt reactions our customers have to the service we provide. Nothing feels more important at the moment than working on climate, especially in such a carbon-intensive space.

Meaningful work

This is the first company I’ve worked at where I’m excited to come in to work just for the chance to speak and spend time with my colleagues. Beyond being incredibly supportive, smart, and hard working - there is no ego in sight. Also some of the funniest people I’ve ever met!
