Job Description

We are seeking candidates who possess an entrepreneurial spirit and have the ability to build long-term mutually beneficial relationships. Our business has no size limitations and offers you the thrill of a start-up with the financial stability of an established industry leader.

As a Commodity Lumber Trader, you will…

  • Provide value to customers by feeding them information on the market pricing, and product availability.
  • Actively join forces with your partners on our trading floor.
  • Unearth deals from your suppliers.
  • Get a charge out of existing relationships and prospect for new business with energy.
  • Manage your open orders with single-minded devotion to detail.
  • Enjoy lively and dynamic conversations.

You Must Be…

  • The best or be working to get there.
  • Gregarious, you've never met a stranger.
  • Book-smart or street-smart, but brilliant is okay too.
  • Focused, you never take your eye off the ball.
  • Persistent, hard-working, honest, accountable, and you must love your mother (we don't require a note).
  • Fun-loving

Not For you if…

  • You get hurt feelings when customers tell you ‘no'.
  • You are average, grumpy, boring or complacent.
  • Technology gives you a headache.
  • You like earnings capped.

At Seaboard you will play an active role in enhancing our leadership culture by joining a group of innovative women and men with the drive to be the best in their profession. You and your partners on the trading floor provide fast-paced market information and product to buyers across North America and around the globe.

Learn the renewable resource trade of commodity forest products through our extensive training program and develop a career that will enable you to reach your personal financial goals while making a meaningful positive impact on others.

For forty years we have celebrated our people – Seaboard’s greatest asset.
