The London Gazette carried notice of appointments/promotions in the Post Office....So you may find something in there.

Use the 'Historians' section and click on 'Search the Archive'

I found one of mine being awarded an Imperial Service Medal for 30 years service in the Home Civil Service as a Postman in 1935.
