“After receiving a record number of entries for our Driver Of The Year Award 2015, we’re all excited about the uptake for our 2016 Award – and we’ve no doubt that competition for this year will be tough,” says Dawn Shakespeare, FPS Marketing and Events Manager.
“FPS has a fantastic track record when it comes to driving up industry standards and promoting best practice to all our members. The Driver of the Year award is a great way to reward the oil tanker drivers for their hard work and to encourage them to continually exceed the industry’s rigorous standards.”
The Driver of the Year award will be announced in April 2016 and presentations to the winning driver will be made by FPS Chief Executive Mark Askew. For this year’s Driver Of The Year Award, this will take place at the driver’s company premises so that all their colleagues can celebrate with them.

“We’re excited about the 2016 Award and really want to beat this year’s amazing record number of entries by encouraging every distributor to get involved – by nominating their finest tanker driver if they’ve not done so in the past 12 months.
“The closing date for entries is 14 February 2016 and each shortlisted candidate will be interviewed in March 2016. We’ve already had lots of nominations so please keep them coming!”
