About The Sofa Delivery Company: At The Sofa Delivery Company, we know that a sofa is one of the most meaningful things someone can buy.

As part of the DFS group, we deliver for our group brands—DFS and Sofology. We're big believers that a great job is not just something you have, it's something you take pride in creating. You'll be working alongside team members who live for the challenge and variety of our roles. No day is the same with us, and that's the joy.

Our colleagues are given the tools, training, and support to make moments matter. We recognise and reward our people for going the extra mile, for our customers and each other. Whether you're in the warehouse, out on the road, or in a customer's home, at The Sofa Delivery Company you'll deliver moments that matter.

Across our Group, we're committed to a culture where everyone feels welcome, valued, and can thrive at work. We celebrate diverse voices, champion inclusion, and support each other through our growing colleague networks. We invest in partnerships that drive change, from supporting Doncaster Pride and introducing the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower, to partnering with Carers UK and developing leaders with Diversity in Retail.
