Speedy Fuels is recruiting an experienced Night Fuel Tanker Driver to join our fuel distribution team in West London.
This is predominantly an HGV Class 1 articulated fuel tanker role. However, operational flexibility is essential, as you will also be required to operate rigid fuel tankers and undertake multidrop deliveries when business demands require it.
The role is primarily based at our West Drayton site (UB7 7EZ), although you will also be required to operate from a West London fuel terminal depending on operational requirements. We are looking for a professional, safety-conscious driver with previous fuel tanker experience, the relevant qualifications, and a flexible approach to supporting our transport operation.
Package details:
- Job Type: Full-time, Permanent – Direct Employer!

- Salary Progression: Increasing to £48,000 per annum (£20.51 per hour) after 4 months
- Shift Pattern: Monday to Friday, 4:00pm – 2:00am, 45 paid hours per week
- Overtime: Weekend overtime during seasonal peaks, paid at time and a half (£28.85 – £30.77 per hour)
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
