This International Women’s Day, we’re celebrating the incredible women who are breaking barriers and driving change in the traditionally male-dominated petrochemical industry. Today, we’re shining a spotlight on Zoe, an inspiring HGV driver we placed with our client, JW Suckling. Her journey is a testament to the power of passion, determination, and the right support system.
Zoe’s path to becoming a petrochemical tanker driver is nothing short of inspiring. Fueled by a lifelong fascination with the industry, she took a leap of faith, invested in herself, and obtained her HGV license. Since 2017, she’s been navigating the roads and proving that women have a rightful place behind the wheel in this demanding field.
