About Bunker One UK
Bunker One UK supports shipping customers across the UK and international markets with marine fuel procurement, physical fuel supply, logistics solutions, and related services. With solid local knowledge and global market coverage, the business is focused on delivering reliable, high-quality bunker solutions, responsive customer service, and efficient operational support.
Role Purpose
As a Junior Bunker Trader at Bunker One UK, you will start your commercial career in an international trading environment and gain hands-on experience with customers, suppliers, pricing, compliance, logistics, and operations in the global marine fuels market. Working closely with experienced traders, you will build a strong foundation in bunker trading while gradually taking on more responsibility as your knowledge and confidence grow.
What you will be doing
You will support Senior Traders with customer enquiries, quotations, pricing calculations, and market intelligence while helping to maintain and develop customer relationships. You will also assist with business development, lead generation, CRM updates, and customer and supplier performance reporting, giving you broad exposure to the commercial side of bunker trading.
You will also play an important role in order entry and contract administration. In this part of the role, you will:
- Negotiate prices and enter bunker sales and purchase orders into company systems.
- Ensure that documentation is complete, correctly recorded, and available to the colleagues and stakeholders involved in each trade.
- Assist with agency, onboarding, credit, and compliance processes.
On the operational side, your tasks will cover:
- Coordinate operations, suppliers, customers, agents, terminals, barges, and transport providers to support smooth order execution.
- Help monitor bunker deliveries, assist with claims handling and issue resolution, prepare post-delivery documentation, and maintain trade files.
- Support daily trading reports, monthly performance reporting, audits, and internal compliance requirements.
