Oilmar DMCC is recruiting bunker traders for its Singapore office, with openings covering both mid-level and senior candidates.

The company said applicants with three to six years of experience are being considered for mid-level roles, while those with more than six years of experience would be suitable for senior positions.

The Singapore-based role centres on originating, negotiating and executing back-to-back marine fuel transactions while developing and managing relationships with shipowners, operators, charterers and suppliers. According to the job description, the position carries direct revenue responsibility and requires strong commercial judgement together with disciplined credit, risk and compliance awareness.

Key duties include executing physical bunker trades in high-sulphur fuel oil (HSFO), very-low-sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO), marine gas oil (MGO) and, where relevant, alternative marine fuels. Traders will also be expected to negotiate pricing and contractual terms, monitor market developments and structure transactions in line with the company’s risk appetite and commercial objectives.

The role also involves managing the full transaction cycle, maintaining customer and supplier relationships, coordinating with operations teams and ensuring compliance with internal policies, sanctions rules and know-your-customer (KYC) requirements.

For the Singapore office, the company said candidates should have a strong understanding of the Asia-Pacific bunker market dynamics, while Mandarin would be an advantage.

For mid-level roles, Oilmar is seeking candidates with proven experience in marine fuel trading, the ability to manage transactions and client relationships independently, and a track record of contributing to revenue and margin. Senior applicants are expected to bring an established market network, proven profit and loss responsibility, and a track record of portfolio growth.

A bachelor’s degree in business, maritime studies, economics, finance or a related subject is preferred, though not mandatory. Fluency in English is required.

Oilmar said the package includes a competitive fixed salary based on experience, a performance-based incentive structure and a clear progression path across its regional office network.

Founded in 2015, Oilmar is a marine fuels trader that has also recently expanded into cargo and base oil trading. The company has offices in Greece, Singapore, South Korea, UAE, and UK.
