Job Description

Who We Are:

Buckeye Pacific is a dynamic, relationship-driven company in the commodity and lumber trading industry. Based in Tualatin, Oregon, our team of 40+ traders specializes in building materials, including lumber, crane mats, and millwork products. While our expertise is in trading, our true strength is the relationships we build—with colleagues, suppliers, and customers.

We believe diverse perspectives make us stronger. Whether you come from a background in business, sales, supply chain, or something entirely different, if you’re a driven, relationship-oriented problem solver, we want to hear from you!

Your Path at Buckeye:

Our Trader Trainee program provides hands-on experience and mentorship to launch your career in trading. During your first 9 months, you’ll work in logistics, gaining a deep understanding of our business while completing our trader training program. Afterward, you’ll be placed in a department that aligns with your strengths and start building your own book of business.

What You’ll Do:

• Build and maintain strong relationships with suppliers, carriers, and customers.

• Negotiate freight rates and manage shipments.

• Problem-solve logistics challenges and ensure compliance with regulations.

• Provide freight quotes and coordinate shipments.

• Research and connect with potential new business partners.

What We Look For:

• Strong communication and relationship-building skills.

• Ambitious, motivated, and eager to learn in a fast-paced industry.

• Detail-oriented with strong organizational and multitasking abilities.

• A team player who thrives in a collaborative environment.

Why Buckeye?

• Competitive salary with performance-based growth.

• Company-paid medical, dental, life, and disability insurance.

• 401(k) with employer match and company stock ownership.

• A supportive, energetic, and team-oriented culture where your ideas and contributions matter.

If you’re looking for a career where you can grow, challenge yourself, and make an impact, we’d love to connect with you!
