New sub postmaster sought in Douglas

Lynda Braidwood to step down after 43 years

The Isle of Man Post Office is seeking expressions of interest for the provision of counter services in the vicinity of the existing Windsor Road Post Office in Douglas.

It's as the current Sub Postmaster Lynda Braidwood has announced her intention to terminate her contract for the service in July, after 43 years at the helm.

The Post Office says it's keen to maintain counter, postal and bill payment services in the area.

Stu Peters MHK, Chairman of Isle of Man Post Office said: "I would like to place on record our grateful thanks to the outgoing sub postmistress Lynda Braidwood for the services she and her team have provided on our behalf and that of our commercial partners for 43 years.

"By starting the expression of interest now, it will allow us to adhere to the required procurement protocol and understand what interest there may be from existing or new businesses in the community."

The closing date for expressing an interest is noon on Tuesday 2 April.

Information can be found online at the IOMPO’s website HERE and on the Isle of Man Government website HERE.
