Marine Fuels Global Salary Survey
Q4 | 2024
Here are the Results of the Biennial Marine Fuels Salary Survey for 2024.
Like our previous survey carried out in 2022 we teamed up with Ship & Bunker to take a closer look at the market conditions and overall attitude to employment and reward across the International Marine Fuels sector.
We have obtained data from our own market intelligence, derived from interaction with individuals and firms over the last two years and supported this with results from a dedicated survey shared with 1000’s of professionals from the industry.
In the report we have utilised the data obtained and examined it in isolation and also in comparison to the survey below to identify additional trends and specific areas of interest for further conversation.
As before all salary data has been converted into USD at prevailing conversion rates.

COVID-19: Impact on Hiring in Commodities
Q1 | 2022
As COVID 19 swept the world, lockdowns came in, furlough was introduced and companies entered one of the most volatile periods in memory. In commodities, supply chain issues became rife and trading houses and producers were squeezed by a sudden downturn in demand.
OPEC meeting after OPEC meeting led to sweeping cuts to oil supply as demand fell to its lowest level on record and the crude price temporarily ran into negative territory.
In a period of great panic for many in the trading space, brokerages thrived on the volatility generated; particularly in the energy markets. Logistics and operations personnel quickly became front and centre of the trading landscape with availability of containers and vessels becoming the keystone for fluid global trade.
We looked at the impact on hiring within the commodity space both during lockdowns and throughout the subsequent easing. With a commodity supercycle just beginning and some light at the end of the tunnel with regards to COVID; how is the job market faring?

Brexit: The Effect on Hiring Attitude
Q1 | 2020
After 3 and a half years of negotiations, delays and many crossroads, the date of the United Kingdom leaving the European Union is almost upon us. Nothing has split political opinion quite so much in the UK for many generations and indeed the recent general election was battled upon Brexit grounds.
Imperium Commodity Search has looked at the impact that the Brexit vote and subsequent negotiations have had on the view of the UK as a marketplace, potential office location and global financial hub. Critically, we wanted to find out how Brexit has affected the views of those in the commodity sector who are looking for new opportunities and new talent.
Our sample includes commodity professionals across Physical Trading, Physical Brokerage, Financial Trading and Financial Brokerage across the UK, EU and Rest of the World.
