Day-to-day operating brief

What Bank Courier (Cash Transit) work looks like in practice

A Bank Courier transports sealed cash, cheques or sensitive banking material between approved premises. Terms should define identity checks, dual control, custody scans, route confidentiality, secure vehicles, prohibited stops, duress procedures, shortages and incident escalation. The courier records seal and container condition but does not count contents unless expressly authorised, vary a protected route informally or discuss schedules outside the operational need-to-know group. Manifest reconciliation should separate container count, declared content and physical seal condition, since the courier may confirm custody without verifying value. Vehicle or crew changes require a formal transfer with both parties recorded; a verbal instruction from an unfamiliar branch contact is insufficient evidence for release.

Responsibilities reflected in the contract

  • Collect and deliver sealed consignments.
  • Verify authorised handover identities.
  • Complete scans manifests and seal checks.
  • Follow protected routes and vehicle controls.
  • Report delays threats and custody exceptions.
