Tamas Bardos

Job title: Pushbike courier, CitySprint, Age: 36, Call Sign: P83, Location: London Central


A well liked professional cycle courier, six years in the saddle of his cycle working Central London, great confidence from his controllers who recognise excellent communication skills on the job, the same great relationship is recognised by clients testimonials. He is proud to wear the uniform and we are proud to nominate him for a National Courier Award.

Tamas has been with our company since 2010. His dedication, knowledge of our area and passion for working as a pushbike courier make him a real asset to our circuit.

The dispatchers at our London office always feel completely confident when giving him customer specific, important or urgent work. We know it’s in capable hands and that Tamas will really go above and beyond to get the job delivered and completed.

Tamas always keeps front of mind that communication is key in what we do, and that at the end of each and every delivery is one of our valued customers. He has a great relationship with staff members and customers alike, and enjoys a very good reputation with the team. He is often available to his dispatchers at short notice, ready to support us and provide his highly capable delivery services.  

Tamas’s skills also extend to being a very talented caterer. He is often found sharing his home-cooked treats with the other pushbike couriers to ensure the whole team well fed, motivated and ready to go (at his own expense!).

He is proud to wear his uniform – and we’re proud to have him with us.
